In this video, event speakers Maria Krysfeldt Rasmussen and Martin Ove Rasmussen share their best advice for leaders and HR professionals seeking to foster engagement and well-being in their work environments.
Thrive at Work: Building an Attractive Work Culture
In 2022, nearly 1 million Danes changed jobs, highlighting the shift towards shorter employment tenures. At this event, a panel of experts representing leaders, HR professionals and employees discussed how businesses can foster stronger employee engagement and well-being.
By CBS Executive Education"Active engagement is a good measure of well-being in a company."
Danes are switching jobs like never before. The reasons vary, including dissatisfaction with company leadership, new opportunities for growth or changes in career path. Essentially, we are heading in the direction of long-term employment and 25-year work anniversaries being rarities.
This shift creates a new landscape for companies and organisations, which need to be mindful of how they adapt. It is no longer enough to focus solely on attracting talent - creating workplaces and cultures that promote engagement and well-being is just as crucial.
At this event, keynote speaker Maria Krysfeldt Rasmussen and a panel featuring Naima Yasin, Julie Hollegaard and Martin Ove Rasmussen explored engagement and well-being, discussing topics such as psychological safety and the importance of autonomy and flexibility in the workplace.
