A great article and a great quote: "We can no longer expect someone to take care of themselves and have their social, emptional and psychological needs met solely outside of work hours." Workplaces need to start thinking about how they can contribute more to their staff. That's why I'm so passionate about helping workplaces to support their newcomer employees through flexible language supports. Having this offered through the employer takes a HUGE emotional and often financial stress off an employee. Happier employees = More productive workplace, better retention, stronger talent pipeline for the future. #workforcedevelopment #EnGen #canadianbusinesses #manitobabusinesses #learningenglish #newcomers #internationalstudents #refugees #immigrants

Leadership has evolved significantly to meet modern workplace demands. Unlike the authoritative leaders of the past, today's leaders must be agile and adaptable, often described as 'shapeshifters'. Former Anglicare WA CEO Ian Carter AM and Western Australian Council of Social Service CEO Louise Giolitto discuss the importance of flexibility, integrity and strategic thinking in contemporary leadership. https://bit.ly/3VEJbfJ #AIMWA #WorkplaceConversations #Leadership

"My kids don't want to take over the family business". That is a painful, personal and (unfortunately) common response I hear from numerous Restoration business owners when I ask them, "What are your succession plans for your business?" or, as a software provider that helps companies run more systematically and in a more process driven manner, another common question I ask, "How well would your business operate next week if you didn't show up?" Questions like these, asked in a respectful manner, often allow us to momentarily look under a rock to expose a signifiant rising threat to the long term viability of the Property Restoration Industry - an emerging leadership-gap. Today's Restoration Industry has been built and led by a generation of leaders that made tremendous sacrifices, working long gruelling hours, often leading to difficult imbalances in their personal lives - imbalance that often spook the rising workforce from aspiring to leadership and management career paths. "I'm not sure if it's worth the tradeoffs" - a common response we hear in conversations with the incoming workforce. So where will the next generation of Restoration Leaders come from? How will we recruit them and enrol them in a career-building mindset? What should their development look like? How do we need to adapt our current management methodology to accommodate their strong preferences (and the preferences of the peers from their generation)? The long-term success of Restoration companies will rest in large part on their ability to attract, recruit, and develop the next generation of management and leadership within their firms - drawing from a new generation that are quite different. At KnowHow this has been the topic of one of our current research efforts, and if our predictions are accurate, the rising 'management gap' is one of the great emerging threats to the Property Restoration Industry of tomorrow - and the subject of our upcoming Fall 2024 Book publication. What is even more exciting, is that this book provides emerging leaders and their mentors will access to over 250 years of wisdom, based on interviews we conducted with a huge cohort of the Industry's most respected leaders. We are very grateful to The Experience and BNP Media for the opportunity to provide the conference's attendees with front row access to the unveiling of our research. Building Leaders: Overcoming the emerging leadership crisis in Property Restoration This book is designed to serve as a roadmap Restoration leaders can follow to develop the next generation of management in their Property Restoration company, based on the timeless advice of seasoned industry leaders. I'm excited! Will I see you in #LasVegas September 4 - 6, 2024? Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/gnfk6sHP

The other day, I received an invitation from Global Impact Church to share my insights about leadership in the 21st century world. During the event, I shared profound insights on leadership, emphasizing the importance of service as the fundamental pillar of leadership, among other key aspects. Just as James Struck stated, "The pinnacle of leadership is service, and the pinnacle of service is leadership. At the highest level, leadership and service dovetail into one entity." It's a stark reminder that if one is not prepared to serve, then one has no place in leadership. #No service, No Leadership#
