Question: What do employees crave, expect, and consider leaving their current jobs for… but increasingly are not taking the initiative to pursue? Answer: Career development! Despite high-profile research studies highlighting the importance of career development to employees worldwide, leaders report that employees are taking a noticeably more passive approach than in the past. They typically attribute this inertia to generational factors, entitlement, and shifting power dynamics. But in conversations with employees, I hear something very different. A large portion of the workforce is putting... Continue Reading

Most workers don’t aspire to leadership roles. That’s the key finding of The 2022 Everywhere Workplace Report by Invanti. In fact, well over the majority at 71% of employees are saying no to a promotion preferring working from anywhere instead. This is interesting data for organizations and leaders everywhere. First, it might settle the nerves of managers and supervisors because it confirms that not every employee is looking to rise up through the ranks. My research with Beverly Kaye found that one of the key reasons managers don’t engage in career conversations with their employees is... Continue Reading
