Productivity has not suffered with remote work, with 82% saying they&#13;<br \/>\nfeel as productive or more productive than before. <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Wellbeing&#13;<br \/>\nhas taken a hit, however, with more than half of young leaders (54%) reporting&#13;<br \/>\nthey have suffered burnout and three in 10 stating their mental and physical&#13;<br \/>\nhealth has declined in the last 12 months. In China, 40% of respondents agree&#13;<br \/>\nthat working remotely makes them feel less comfortable about taking time off&#13;<br \/>\nsick.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#13;<br \/>\nis no doubt that there is an increased focus and higher employee expectation on&#13;<br \/>\nthe topic of wellbeing,&#8221; said Anders Lundholm, Managing Director &#8211; Hong Kong,&#13;<br \/>\nLHH. &#8220;Regardless if the workforce is working from home or in the office \u00a0\u2013 there is higher employee expectation on&#13;<br \/>\nflexibility and recognition both for their work contributions and their mental&#13;<br \/>\nand physical health.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Two&#13;<br \/>\nthemes that emerged from the study are that the Great Resignation is currently&#13;<br \/>\na Great Re-Evaluation for salaried employees and a growing disconnect between \u00a0leadership and their employees. <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><i>The&#13;<br \/>\nGreat Resignation <\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The&#13;<br \/>\nstudy found that nearly two in five employees are already changing or&#13;<br \/>\nconsidering new careers and 41% are considering moving to jobs with more&#13;<br \/>\nflexible working options. A quarter of the workforce is considering moving to&#13;<br \/>\nanother country or region.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The&#13;<br \/>\nmarket is ripe: two-thirds of workers are confident that companies will start&#13;<br \/>\nsignificant hiring again, and less than half are satisfied with career&#13;<br \/>\nprospects at their current company. <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The&#13;<br \/>\nkey word is &#8216;considering&#8217;,&#8221; said Lundholm. &#8220;What we&#8217;re seeing is actually not&#13;<br \/>\nyet a Great Resignation when it comes to non-hourly workers, but rather a Great&#13;<br \/>\nRe-Evaluation in which salaried employees are seeing more possibilities&#13;<br \/>\navailable to them, which puts everything on the table. Companies need to&#13;<br \/>\nrecognize the warning signs that great talent could soon be walking out the door&#13;<br \/>\nand address demands for increased work-life balance and career advancement&#13;<br \/>\nopportunities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><i>The&#13;<br \/>\nLeadership Disconnect<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"xmsolistparagraph\">Study findings point&#13;<br \/>\nto a large disconnect between employees and their managers and senior&#13;<br \/>\nleadership. While 80% of leaders say they are satisfied with senior&#13;<br \/>\nleadership, only 43% of non-managers are satisfied. Satisfaction with&#13;<br \/>\nleadership is particularly low in the areas of company culture and career advancement&#13;<br \/>\nopportunities. Among the findings:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Less than half are satisfied with career prospects at&#13;<br \/>\ntheir company and only 37% of non-managers say their company is effectively&#13;<br \/>\ninvesting in developing their skills<\/li>\n<li>Only 48% of&#13;<br \/>\nworkers say their managers meet or exceed expectations for encouraging a good&#13;<br \/>\nworking culture<\/li>\n<li>Just 50% of&#13;<br \/>\nworkers say their managers meet or exceed expectations for helping support&#13;<br \/>\ntheir work-life balance<\/li>\n<li>67% of non-managers&#13;<br \/>\nsay leaders don&#8217;t meet their expectations for checking on their mental&#13;<br \/>\nwellbeing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In&#13;<br \/>\nChina, 44% of respondents are considering coaching\/mentoring leadership skills&#13;<br \/>\nin response to the challenges of the last 12 months. And although 78% believe a&#13;<br \/>\nleadership style focused on empathy and a supportive attitude will be important&#13;<br \/>\nafter the pandemic, only 27% believe the company will provide this.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Employees&#13;<br \/>\nneed leaders to rise to the occasion by evolving their skillset,&#8221; said Lundholm.&#13;<br \/>\n&#8220;There is an opportunity for companies to invest in coaching for their leaders so&#13;<br \/>\nthey can\u00a0 better identify and address&#13;<br \/>\nissues that could otherwise become the reason employees leave.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For more information, download&#13;<br \/>\nthe <i>Resetting Normal: Defining the New Era of Work<\/i> whitepaper\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.adeccogroup.com\/resetting-normal-2021\/resetting-normal-lhh-en\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.media-outreach.com\/news\/2021-10-20\/99855\/lhh-study-reveals-state-of-great-resignation-and-warning-signs-for-leaders\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HONG&#13; KONG SAR &#8211; Media OutReach &#8211; 20 October&#13; 2021 &#8211; As companies struggle with what workplaces should look like going&#13; forward, findings from a new LHH and The Adecco Group study reveal global&#13; workers&#8217; attitudes about remote versus in-person work, how their companies have&#13; handled the pandemic, their career plans moving forward, the state &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18256,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[60],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18255"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18255"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18255\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18256"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18255"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18255"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18255"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
