Years ago, I worked on a consulting project for a company that was facing customer service challenges. They were convinced the problem was training. So, they brought in a group of consultants to help them determine their training needs. Ends up, their challenge wasn’t training. At least not entirely. The issue was staffing and scheduling. That’s why I wanted to share with you this Time Well Spent from our friends at Kronos.

With the unemployment rate hovering at an historic low of 4.1% and the department of labor reporting average job tenure declining, retaining the employees you have is much more important now than it was a few years ago. If your employee retention rate is low and employee turnover is high, meaning that employees are jumping ship faster than you can hire new ones to replace them, there might be a reason.

Does your organization have an opinion on hiring to ensure neurodiversity? While diversity is something most organizations pay attention to (and even strive for), neurodiversity may not be on your radar yet.
