Human Capital Strategy

On-boarding

The first few weeks and months at a new job can be tough for everyone involved.  New employees need to learn the ropes, and managers need to effectively put their new employee’s skills to the test.  A poor on-boarding plan can hurt your company’s overall performance.  Gen Cubed can help your company to streamline and supercharge the on-boarding process, increasing retention, satisfaction, productivity and profit.

High turnover means money is leaking through the cracks…

Most on-boarding processes are tedious, expensive and less than engaging for new hires.  According to the US Dept of Labor, 80% of new hires will decide within 6 months whether they plan to stay with your organization.  On average, in the United States, 4.3 billion dollars per year is spent on orientation costs.  High turnover, especially in new hires, means money is leaking through the cracks.  Gen Cubed can help you create a customized and streamlined on-boarding plan to engage  new hires from day one.

Employment Branding

Do your recruiting materials reflect what a career with your company is all about?  An off-target recruitment brand means you are forfeiting the best candidates to your competitors.

Retention

Are your employees turning over at extremely high rates?   Before you chalk it up to youth or fickleness, take a look at the numbers…

The data says age alone doesn’t have much to do with retention…

Attrition is very expensive.  The total cost of turnover is anywhere from 50%-200% of the employee’s annual salary.  Even with entry-level hourly wage workers, turnover typically costs at least 30% of that person’s annual income, this can cost a medium sized organization tens of thousands of dollars a year.  The data says age doesn’t have much to do with it.  Current estimates indicate the average worker will hold 20 positions in their lifetime.  We can help you ensure that as many of those positions as possible are with you.

Training

Use the multigenerational perspective to better pinpoint motivations, provide relevant feedback and bring your teams to the next level of performance.

Are you training the right people on the right topics in the right way?

Things change so quickly these days, we can barely keep the apps up to date in our smartphones; much less stay on top of the next new wave in technology in the workplace. It’s tempting to reserve the bulk of your training budget for product knowledge, technology advances, and operational changes; after all this is what keeps you relevant and competitive.  Leadership and management skills are often the real culprit.  We can provide customized training solutions to coach, facilitate and lead your multigenerational teams to success.  Use the multigenerational perspective to better pinpoint motivations, provide on-target and relevant feedback and bring your teams to the next level of performance.

Managing

If managing people is like herding cats; we’ve been told that managing the new generation is like herding cats that talk back, are always texting and listening to headphones and want to do director-level work in their second week on the job.

What drives the new workforce is not different, it’s the perspective and motivations for work that have changed.

There is a lot of speculation, both positive and negative about Generation Y’s expectations and preferences in the workplace.  What drives the new workforce is not different, it’s the perspective and motivations for work that have changed. We’ll help you better understand how to communicate, motivate and reward your multigenerational workforce.
