Businesses can overcome barriers to growth by developing a culture of empowerment, continuous learning and innovation, says UKG
As organisations battle skills shortages, shifting employee preferences and constantly evolving regulations around safeguarding and wellbeing, providing staff with the platform to reach their full potential has never been more important for business leaders.
Below, Neil Pickering, Senior Manager of HR Innovation at UKG, outlines the four most pressing pain points facing modern businesses, and identifies the strategies organisations can adopt to overcome these challenges.
1. Managing employee turnover
Despite a slight decrease in the volume of unfilled jobs last quarter, in the UK there are still almost one million vacancies businesses are unable to find candidates for.
2. Optimising employee performance
Business leaders should find ways to motivate their staff and create a work environment where they genuinely want to succeed.
3. Labour and data compliance
Businesses have both a moral and legal duty to go above and beyond when it comes to supporting employees.
4. Adapting to change
A business cannot be flexible without an engaged and responsive workforce.
