THE HR AGENDA: Focusing on employees’ personal growth and giving them opportunities to upskill will help mitigate talent shortage, according to GrowthOps Asia’s Talent Acquisition Head Shakira Pathmarajah.
“We believe that upskilling and coaching are simple, yet, they are underutilised tools for employee retention. So, consistent microlearning programs and engaging training opportunities provide team members with advanced skills and motivation and serve as long-term investments for companies.”
Pathmarajah also enumerated other ways their organisation attracts, retains, and nurtures talent by ensuring that employee mental well-being is a priority, maximising work-life integration through hybrid work, fostering diversity and inclusion to reach a broader audience, and improving efficiency through digital transformation.
