  • 4 x 30-minute sessions, every Wednesday for a month

As a manager and leader, you know that everything changes when you find and keep great people. Yes, the quality of our work improves. But more than that, there’s the satisfaction of rewarding work relationships and a team who inspire us to raise the bar of our own leadership. Register now to learn about the important mindset shifts we need to keep up with an evolving marketplace and the actionable steps that will help you reshape and revitalise your approach to talent retention.

Who should attend: 

This series is ideal for aged care managers, team leaders, supervisors and schedulers.

 Talent retention bootcamp includes:

  • Session 1: Staying power
  • Session 2: Mapping the journey
  • Session 3: Moments that matter
  • Session 4: The generational mashup

Session 1: Staying power

From the moment someone looks at your job opening, to the time they leave your organisation, everything that person learns, does, sees, and feels contributes to their experience. And how they rate that experience has a huge impact on how long they stay. This session explains why we need a mindset shift in the way we think about the world of work and what people want from employment.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Understand the evolution to an experience economy and why this is vital for recruitment and retention
  • Realise what people want from their work
  • Recognise why people stay

Session 2: Mapping the journey

The workplace has changed dramatically over the last 5 years. To attract and retain good people, our understanding of the employee journey needs to flex and change too. Each stage of the journey is an opportunity to connect and strengthen relationships with the kind of people we know will be the best fit for our organisation.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Plot the ‘real journey’
  • Create an accurate Empathy Map
  • Build, measure and learn with Design Thinking

Session 3: Moments that matter 

Our lives are shaped by defining moments – short, memorable, and meaningful experiences that create a lasting impact. By paying attention to certain phases, stages, and events in the employee journey, we can create more of these impactful moments. We can apply time, effort, and strategic thought to craft defining moments that shape memories and change perceptions. When people have a choice to make about who they want to work for, it’s these occasionally remarkable moments that make all the difference.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Examine key moments that matter
  • Explore belonging and connection
  • Understand learning and mastery
  • Recognise the importance of validation and appreciation

Session 4: The generational mashup

For the first time ever, we now have five different generations present in the workplace, from Traditionalists and Baby Boomers right though to Gen Z. While the multigenerational workforce poses some challenges, it’s also a moment to celebrate. If we look more closely at what is common across all generations, we can resist the limitations of age-based stereotypes and harness the full potential of generational diversity. We can foster a culture of respect and inclusion that turbo-charges our ability to retain great people.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Understand the implications and limitations of generational trends
  • Recognise popular myths about Xers, Boomers, Millennials and Gen Z
  • Appreciate fundamental workforce expectations that transcend all age cohorts
  • Comprehend workforce planning needs in a blended workforce
  • Analyse communication needs across and among age groups
