What great employees desire in a career has changed! The employers who want to attract and KEEP top team members should pay attention to the 6 changing demands of today's workforce. In today's episode we cover the final two changes today's best employees/team members are looking for. They want the focus to be on their strengths, not their weaknesses, and they are seeking work-life balance more than ever! According to June 2021 Forbes article by Jack Kelly Prudential’s latest Pulse of the American Worker survey found that 25% of workers “plan to look for a new job post-pandemic” and “compensation, work-life balance and lack of growth opportunities are top priorities.”

What great employees desire in a career has changed! The employers who want to attract and KEEP top team members should pay attention to the 6 changing demands of today's workforce. Most of the changes are simple and can be very cost-effective to implement. Many only require a change of perspective, a change of thinking, and a change in S.O.P.’s. Even the changes that will require a financial investment are still a fraction of what retraining and rehiring are costing companies today.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
This Week's Leadership Challenge - 1) Ask your team what your mission & vision is. If they don't know, it might be time to work on that.. 2) Create a training budget and plan for 2022 (perhaps a Strengths workshop or HPT??).
This week’s quote: "Income seldom exceeds personal development." - Jim Rohn

Discovering Your Calling is for purpose-driven women who look successful on paper—but feel unfulfilled in their careers and know they were made for more.
In each episode,…
Because when you keep ignoring the nudge for more, you stay stuck in cycles of overthinking, job hopping, and settling. This podcast helps you break that cycle—starting now.
If you are:
You are in the right place.
This podcast is designed to help you tap into your natural talents using CliftonStrengths® (StrengthsFinder) so you can feel confident and energized about your career today—and excited about the possibilities ahead.
Imagine a future filled with purpose and joy—not just in your work, but in your relationships, well-being, and hobbies. This is a journey of self-discovery and intentional growth, and I’m honored to take it with you.
I’m your host, Sheri—former top network marketing leader turned Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach. After 25 years in what I believed was my “dream career,” I found myself successful on the outside but deeply unfulfilled on the inside. I knew I was underutilizing my God-given talents—and that something had to change.
I spent three long years navigating uncertainty, following the wrong “experts,” and investing in programs that didn’t align with my values. Eventually, I realized that true fulfillment and sustainable success only come from aligning your natural strengths with your vision and mission for life.
Now, I’m here to share everything I’ve learned with you.
If you’re ready to navigate your strengths, embrace a career pivot, and discover your true calling, this podcast is for you. This isn’t just another self-help show—it’s a guide, a companion, and a source of clarity and encouragement on your journey to purposeful work.
So lace up your shoes, pop in your earbuds, and let’s get going.
Join me on Discovering Your Calling, and let’s create a life of fulfillment, freedom, flexibility, and impact—together.
