The world’s changed professionally and personally as we've all been challenged to change how we live, work and socialize. None of us are the same now that a pandemic has shown us a new normal. People are exhausted, hopeful and concerned about their jobs. To retain your team and talent, you must understand the effect change has on staff or risk losing them to a competitor. People want to work and bring with them tremendous knowledge and much needed skills.
Addressing this, and other employee concerns openly will increase recruitment efforts and retention, grow productivity, lower stress/burnout and health issues, as well as strengthen important communications. We understand that change is a constant and it’s our job as leaders to assist staff who are struggling, give them the tools and let them know they’re not alone.
Change comes in many forms. Sometimes, it’s organizational change or health concerns. Or, it may be uncertainty in your industry, more disruption, more competition. And, it can be the people side including how to cope. Fear and anxiety, new management new staff and new roles can be an opportunity for growth. Plus, change can provide additional learning, inclusion, higher retention and advancement.
When we successfully navigate the intricacies change brings, we continue to grow, increase our productivity and have a distinct advantage in advancing the essential orthodontic services we provide.
