    For the first time in history, the average office often has multiple generations working together as a team. Due to advances in medicine, multigenerational workforces in the US often include a record-setting five generations. There are many benefits of multigenerational diversity in the workplace, but also significant challenges.

    To reduce risk and exposure and improve employee retention, it’s critical to cultivate a strong management style. Firstly, a good boss is key to employee satisfaction and retention. A Gallup poll found that 75% of people who left their jobs were motivated to run because they didn’t want to work for their supervisor anymore. In 2022, this is an especially critical point. This year, many employers are losing staff or facing challenges finding new talent to support their team. So, it’s vital that organizations do everything they can to show candidates their best employer brand. A second reason companies need strong management is that an employee in a leadership position often has the power to make mistakes in their work that result in significant consequences. A common error by management could create consequences such as risking compliance or increasing legal risk and exposure. MP’s HR compliance experts share the top common mistakes managers make—and tips to fix them. Read the article to:
