The Great Resignation: Preparing for an Unprecendented Challenge

It’s no secret that the Great Resignation is an ongoing, looming threat to businesses both small and large in the present and future. Employees are voluntarily resigning from their positions in large numbers, impacting the flow of business and financials of companies both small and large. Trends like these cause companies to search for innovative solutions to combat all the aspects that go in to losing an employee, or in this case, potentially multiple.  

According to ESR.com: 

“The “Great Resignation” in the United States saw a record 4.53 million workers quit their jobs in March 2022, beating the previous series high of 4.51 million in November 2021, according to the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) released by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics.” 

In the sales and business space, it can be especially difficult to lose an employee. The professional and business service industry saw the fourth highest quit rate of any industry in 2021, at a staggering 3.7% quit rate. Training a new hire is an intensive process that requires the company to invest time and money into getting an employee up-to-speed, which can take as long as 18 months. This combined with external costs associated with paying an employee can make the loss of this “investment”, in a business sense, a quick and painful loss that can take a long time to make up for and see returns on.
