+ About the Alaant Advisor
The Alaant Advisor is our column focused on all things going on in the world of recruiting, job placement, and search. Think of it as your weekly briefing—a handy, quick guide to what's going on.

Here's what's happening this week:

Last Week’s QOTW Poll Results:

Q: If you’re experiencing burnout in the workplace, why?

  • Poor Management - 51%
  • Understaffed/Overworked - 24%
  • No Flexibility - 17%
  • Other - 8%

While you may not always see it, burnout is real. What's the result? Employees are less productive, prone to mistakes, or they could be looking for a new job. Any of these will create more challenges for your organization. Find out what's burdening your team, and build solutions to address it so you can retain your top talent.  Need help? The experts at Alaant are here for you.
