The Patter Is People

 

Adios 2019! You were wonderful, but we are now focused on helping our clients of all stripes put the finishing touches on their 2020 plans — and there are three human-centric trends we’ve factored into their strategies. See if you’re positioned to take advantage of these themes … If not, stop by for an effervescent Spy19 and some bubbly brainstorming!

1. Spotted: The rise of the empowered employee
As certain sectors heat up, and the competition for talent gets increasingly stiff, companies are needing to get WAY more creative and proactive about wooing top performers — and keeping them happy.  This requires more than increasing benefits… which often creates more chaos and complexity.  Are you doing all you can to recruit and retain the best people?  Or just coasting and hoping?

2. Spotted: Continued interest—and investment—in wellness
With healthcare costs skyrocketing, it makes sense…. Companies are making a more explicit commitment to health and wellbeing — both internally AND as a business opportunity and differentiation strategy. Fact is, wellness is now a $4.2 TRILLION market worldwide — growing at twice the pace of the global economy. Is your business tapping into the flow?

3. Spotted: Engaged and aligned leadership teams
Since forever, many C-suite execs have been running their own shows. We’re now seeing a shift to more collaborative leadership teams who are strategically aligned and optimized as a group. Companies that take the time to clarify business and brand imperatives, crystallize shared priorities and processes and truly deepen trust are creating exponential business value.

If you’d like to talk human-centric engagement and positioning strategies, we’re here!!
