New Career Paradigm Flexibility Briefing

The New Career Paradigm study results have clear implications for corporate leaders looking to recruit and retain critical talent in a tight labor market. Our findings demonstrate that today's workers are diverse in both the factors they consider important for job satisfaction and in the goals and priorities they deem personally important. For organizations that want to recruit, retain and engage today's critical talent - in particular, young employees, women and mature workers - it will be increasingly important to understand in advance what compels and inspires these distinctly different groups across the life cycle. This briefing provides insight into the importance of employee satisfaction with workplace flexibility as it relates to recruiting critical talent throughout the career life cycle.
