Guest: Michelle Sanchez-Bickley

Amidst the Great Resignation, exceptional organizations are still retaining their top employees, and recruiting new staff.  Renown Health is one of them.

In the second of our Connex Executive Insights series, Michelle Sanchez-Bickley of Renown Health joins Maureen Metcalf to discuss the challenges of the Great Resignation for HR departments.  It’s particularly challenging in the health care sector; the strains of COVID on our medical system put particular pressure on doctors, nurses, and hospital support staff.  That’s led to 30% or more turnover.

Using a combination of developing internal culture, open communications, hybrid and remote working, and a modern innovation on apprenticeship, Renown Health is a bright spot emerging above the crisis.

Here's what Michelle and Maureen cover:

• Why taking a hard look at your company culture is key to losing staff;
