People strategies to improve in 2024

The fall season is the optimal time for businesses to plan strategies to help improve their people areas. Some areas to look at improving in 2024:

📝 Recruitment and hiring - review and update job descriptions to ensure accuracy and relevancy. Streamline application processes for candidates and implement effective screening and interview techniques.

👥 Onboarding - improve your processes to ensure new employees feel welcome and supported from Day 1 with a comprehensive onboarding program that includes training, company culture and values, mentorships, peer to peer networking and more.

📈 Performance Management - strengthen this area by implementing regular feedback and goal setting process. This will help with clarity of what is expected and help employees grow and develop.

📚 Training & Development - invest in programs to enhance employee skills and knowledge, provide opportunities for professional and personal growth (e.g., conference passes, webinars, tuition reimbursement).

🍏 Health & Wellbeing - review your employee benefits package and explore initiatives and resources to support overall health and wellbeing. This can include offering various programs such as retirement plans, flexible work arrangements, wellness programs and others.
