Building Bench Strength: Cultivating a “People First” Team

WIN would like to thank KPMG for hosting Amy Lafko in a memorable event on building bench strength! Amy, a renowned speaker on workforce resilience, inspired us with her insights on creating “Resume-able” experiences to enhance workforce resilience. Here are some of the key takeaways from Amy’s discussion:

Career Rock Wall Approach: Create multiple pathways for development, such as lateral moves, stretch assignments, and mentorship programs.

Soft Skills Development: Focus on problem-solving and emotional intelligence to build a strong, adaptable workforce.

Engaging Top Talent: Think about strategies for growth opportunities and retention, including personalized career paths and recognition programs.

Self-Leadership Culture: Foster empowerment within teams by encouraging autonomy and accountability.

Amy’s compelling quote, “Have you done anything resume-able this month?” encourages us all to reflect on our growth.
