Episode 88: The Great (Fill in the Blank)

This season of DBAJAW was inspired by The Great Resignation so we thought we’d spend some time digging into what it is, how it has evolved, and what it means to us.

Key Takeaways:

  • The Great Resignation feels like too narrow of a phrase to capture the deep reflection and nuanced decision-making that many people are experiencing. We like The Great Re-ignition, Contemplation, and Reset.

  • It can be scary to contemplate life and career changes. Many people have found reassurance in being part of a collective.

  • This moment in time is an opportunity for employers to contemplate and reflect on the past few years – to make decisions about how they want to continue to operate and to get curious about what is now important to employees.

  • It is also an invitation to employees to take stock of where they are at, what is important to them, and how they want to spend their time and energy.
