Quay Appointments proud supporters of Pink Ribbon Day!
Our October Breakfast is dedicated to Breast Cancer Research.

Don Holley

A recent survey revealed that 40% of employees were looking to change their job as soon as the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) ends want to learn more? Come and join us for the next breakfast meeting at Quay Appointments!

"Retaining your Talent after the GFC"

• What measures has your company taken to survive?
• What HR factors are critical to succeed in the upturn?
• Leading the leadership!
• What happened to the "War for Talent"?
• So has the Talent Shortage gone?
• What can Managers do to minimise the potential tensions of newcomers when the existing staff have stuck with the business through the tough times?

A very traditional knee jerk reaction to a economic downturn and most commonly with the US or European based parent companies who execute a global or 'blanket' reduction in force (RIF) under the premise of a 'share the pain' approach that then impacts a subsidiary that is relatively healthy or growing.

Good quality staff know their value and are confident and marketable, this is why they are your best they are the ones that pull you through the hard times, however start losing them and you may create a domino effect and even with job losses occurring there are still more people leaving the Australian workforce than are entering it.

Don Holley is Managing Director of Mindset Group and has spent the majority of his working career with large retailers to a senior management level, where he gained significant people management, operational and commercial experience.
