Ten top reasons to invest in your people

Nick Goddard

This is the time of year when many HR, learning and business leaders will be thinking about their plans and budgets for the year to come.

It feels like this is even more the case just now after two years of pandemic disruption and with many organisations and their people still coming to terms with operating in a more hybrid working world coupled with high staff turnover and difficulties recruiting the right people.

 

So here is a reminder of ten top reasons why investing in the development of your leaders, managers and people may be timely and cost effective:

 

1.     Better employee retention

2.     Attracting quality new people

3.     Boosting workplace and team morale

4.     Creating a more flexible and adaptable workforce

5.     Enhancing the capability and impact of your managers and leaders

6.     Increasing Productivity and improving commercial relationships

7.     Better risk management and decision making

8.     Redefining your company vision, purpose, values and personality

9.     Support the wellbeing of your people

10.  Providing your people with the tools and ambition to accelerate their careers
