PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 19, 2024 — Driven by shifting societal values, technological advancements, and global events like the COVID-19 pandemic, significant changes to the workforce are happening at a much more rapid pace than we’ve ever seen. What employees expect from their jobs has evolved, with a growing emphasis on not just financial compensation but also holistic job satisfaction, personal growth, and alignment with personal values. These expectations have reshaped the dynamics between employers and employees, forcing organizations to rethink how they engage, motivate, and retain their workforce.
Despite 100% of C-suite leaders fully anticipating changes like these to their own workforce, just 30% are confident of their capabilities to navigate these changes, according to a report from Accenture in July 2024.

A critical resource for any organization seeking to navigate the complexities of the modern workplace, the report provides clear actions and strategic guidance to help businesses not only survive but flourish in the face of these transformative changes.

“My generation, Gen X, grew up with Boomers who were push, push, push, and if you didn’t work tirelessly, you weren’t working hard enough … but today, younger generations are changing the definition of ‘work’ and what it means to ‘work hard.'” – Brooke Page-Thompson, President of Velocity Advisory Group.
