Description

In this session: The Retention Flywheel: Growing Talent, Not Just Keeping It led by Ashley Bro, attendees will reframe career retention, not as a static concept, but as a system-wide, continuous cycle of movement that drives growth throughout the organization. Instead of viewing career growth as a personal escape route, participants explore how it can be designed as an interconnected system that supports upward, lateral, and even downward movement, all while aligning with organizational goals. Ashely will also focus on how leaders can act as champions of talent development, rather than gatekeepers. Throughout the session, Ashley and attendees will examine career movement through various interactive activities with an emphasis that career growth is a dynamic, system-wide process that is constantly evolving, rather than a one-time escape route for individuals, and participants will have a fresh perspective on career development as an ongoing, organizational movement and will leave with actionable strategies to implement in their own workplaces. This session is about reframing the way we think about growth, not as something to fear or contain, but as a powerful force that propels individuals, leaders, and entire organizations forward.
