It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.
In the world of search, we talk to hundreds of people every month. With these conversations come one thing and that’s market insight.
We get to see changes in markets before they are reported, and perhaps most importantly we also get insight into the cultural variances across the industry.
During 2022 we have seen both sides of the coin – we have seen businesses which are losing employees because of cultural bust ups, and we have seen companies that, despite not having the best remuneration packages in the market, employees don’t want to leave giving them market leading retention rates.
Chris Lewis, Business Manager at RMG said – “The RMG team speak to a constant supply of individuals that are exploring new career opportunities, and when digging into the motivation for seeking a move, the reasoning has definitely moved to more of a cultural issue than anything else. So many more people are looking to move away from a toxic or unrewarding culture than are seeking higher remuneration elsewhere. It’s safe to say that if you can create a rewarding and positive culture within your business, your retention rates will be higher regardless of the remuneration you are offering”.
