The green transition, the demographic changes, the macroeconomic and geopolitical shifts, and the rise of AI evolution are reshaping the workforce locally and globally today. They are more fluid, more mobile, increasingly agile and independent, demands and expectations continue to grow. As priorities shift across today’s multigenerational workforce, talent expectations have evolved—reshaping what talent looks for in jobs and redefining the future of work. There is a greater emphasis on finding meaning and purpose in one‘s career—moving beyond the traditional paycheck to seek fulfillment, growth, and impact.

Retaining and attracting talent is becoming more critical, challenging and complex now, especially with mental health support, financial wellness programs, inclusive perks and perquisites forming the workplace’s essential benefit necessities of today’s work environment. Businesses must learn to adapt quickly to these shifts to remain relevant. The harmful outcomes of disengaged employees impact the businesses, and managing such tasks can be most daunting, stressful and testing for our clients.

Therefore, at Lockton, we help clients improve them by building better engagement and communication strategies and tactics using a wide variety of measurable tools to first understand the “why” questions and the key contributing factors such as:

• Observable Behaviors – Proactive contributions, absenteeism & presentism, collaboration, positive communication, advocacy and participation in development activities.

• Emotional Indicators – Energy level, sense of belonging, pride in work, trust and safety, resilience, satisfaction & fulfillment to help curve out the right strategy that works.
