Education, experience and skill sets are all crucial for the best possible career.

But all of these can be taught.

From a longevity perspective, how people feel interacting with you will always win out in the end.

The best career advice I can give anyone is to try and be a good person. Work is so much easier when people like you.

People leaving your company can either be the best or the worst advocates for your business.

And the choice is entirely yours.

Legitimate reasons someone might have a gap in their CV:

- Travel
- Career Break
- Personal Project
- Trying something newΒ Β 
- FamilyΒ 
- HealthΒ 
- School
- Just because

It's important that normalise this and stop holding it against potential candidates as if it is some sort of red flag.

If all of your employees are un-motivated, then it's probably a 'YOU' problem.Β 

Not a 'THEM' problem.

The stupid thing about all of my content is that no one actually disagrees with me that a motivated and incentivised team is good for the business as much as it is for the team

And then they wonder why retention is so low???

No one is a perfect manager and trying to achieve that is never going to work. But aiming to be 10-15% better feels achievable for all of us

How a boss or manager treats an employee when they are leaving the company is one of the best ways to judge their character

Let’s share a bit of positivity today. When has a company or a boss really stood up and supported you?

Never forget that despite all the noise, all the numbers say that flexible working is good for both employees and employers. We are literally arguing about a win-win situation.
