Organizations can no longer guarantee work and careers, even if they want to. Longevity was a sign of employer-employee relations; turnover was a sign of dysfunction. None of these assumptions apply today. moravecglobal continue. Julia Fernandes Very nice post.

The downside of this is that it stifles candor, creativity and innovation and often leads to a my way or the highway environment. While there is little debate that speed can create an extreme competitive advantage, it is not well understood that the lack of speed can send a company (or a career) into a death spiral.

Bottom line…if you have high employee turnover (see “ Cutting Employee Churn “), a fractured corporate culture, a lack of leadership development and mentoring programs, regressive compensation programs, and a lack of C-level focus on talent then talent cannot be your biggest asset. I Think Not.
