X : Any thoughts on the great resignation?
Me : I suspect it depends upon where you work. Back in May, I talked about the great division between the haves and have nots of the corporate world - swardley.medium.com/the-great-divi… ... I don't think of these changes as uniform.

X : And?
Me : Well, some companies will suffer (and are already suffering) from losses but that's mostly down to executive action and an inability to adapt. Some will benefit i.e. I do like this tweet -

X : Why do you think companies were caught out by this?
Me : No idea. It's not like people haven't been talking about it for the last 12-18 months. It shouldn't come as a surprise -

X : How do you fix this?
Me : Not sure what you mean? Do you mean "We've not been keeping an eye on this and we're now losing lots of our talent. How do we fix it?"
X : Yes
Me : If you still have people working for you then you've still got talent. Try nurturing it.

X : Tips?
Me : Really? Ok, recognise you've still got talent i.e. don't just go around saying you've lost your talent because all that means is you haven't looked hard enough. Fix the causes i.e. adapt to the new world. Nurture. Realise where you lack talent is in the exec layer.

X : There is nothing wrong with our exec layer.
Me : Sure. So, 12-18 months after people have been warning about the obvious you want to come and talk about the "great resignation" ... you've got a serious problem with situational awareness. It's not your staff.
