Every day millions of people woke up, sat in the traffic of the daily commute, clocked in, performed the duties of the daily grind, and then reversed the order to do it all again the next day. And then, the isolation of the pandemic gave them time for introspection and a dawning realization that they needed a paradigm shift. As a result, in 2021, 47.4 million people took a stand and voluntarily abandoned their jobs. Some retired early. Some upgraded to better managed and paying positions. Some followed passions and started their own business. Many show no signs of returning to the workforce.
The February Alumni Town Hall will delve into the great resignation's growth, impacts, repercussions and ripple effects. Economists at Goldman Sachs estimate 2.5 million people are missing from the workplace, and they will not return for the same jobs, wages and work-life balance they left. We will be exploring all sides of the issue. Employers and employees alike will find nourishment in this frank and relevant conversation between three industry leaders who understand the nuances and can help guide us with their sound, pertinent and hope-based wisdom.
Tune in for a highly engaging and informative discussion as the panel tackles questions such as:
Are organizations impacted by mass resignations taking responsibility for the exodus, and what steps are they taking to reevaluate employee demands in the workplace?
Is there a negotiation method that leads to a middle ground that equally values the employer and the employee and their best interests?
Within the context of this new paradigm, how can job seekers advocate for themselves effectively?
What advice do you have for employers who long for a return to the way things were as they move toward the future?
Is it possible to stay out of the workforce too long? What should we be doing now to prepare for a return without settling?
The UCLA Alumni Town Hall is a gathering place where Bruins can have their voices heard, ask essential questions, and receive transparency and truth. Sign up now to submit questions that will help guide the conversation.
