Leveraging Change to Drive Engagement and Retention
What have The New York Times, Simon Sinek and Adam Grant all learned about the largest media company you've never heard of? That leveraging change to your team's advantage is the key to success within engagement and retention. Red Ventures has grown from a DirecTV retailer to a portfolio of international media brands with thousands of employees - including brands like The Points Guy, CNET, Bankrate, Lonely Planet, and more. The key to successfully navigating this growth was by leveraging our culture, using key themes/values like 'Everything is Written in Pencil' and 'Being Great People to Work With' as a North Star.This talk will break down how you can scale your culture, engage your top performers and thrive in the toughest of times - including growth/change periods.
