Great Career Planning News for Middle Managers!
There's some important career planning going on in medium and
large companies. Corporations are finally coming around to
recognize a revealing statistic: lose a middle manager and
tangible losses can be 150% of that manager's annual salary!
Costs associated with recruiting, interviewing, selecting and
training new middle managers add up. Not to mention the cost of
decreased morale and productivity.
Middle managers make up 7-8% of any company. Because of the
current rate of turnover of middle managers looking for better
opportunities, the openings created have generated an employee's
market. We hear reports of middle management candidates getting
good job offers on the initial interview.
Contrary to current thought, human resources departments have
found that midlevel managers leave jobs for one main reason. And
it's not salary. They don't leave bad companies. They leave bad
bosses. Money is the least significant factor in turnover.
As a result of all this, two important phenomena are occurring.
Corporations are bending over backwards to retain middle
managers. And there are a lot of job opportunities if your
career planning has you thinking about moving into management or
upgrading your current position.
In addition, recruiters are targeting middle managers. They are
collecting and offering pools of talent to meet a company's
general purposes.
Besides, with more people younger than 40 entering management, a
whole new set of career planning priorities is being set in
motion.
For example, people involved in career planning should think of
themselves as "free agents." The days of lifetime tenure are
long gone. People are expecting to change jobs and even careers
several times in the course of a lifetime. And they're looking
for jobs with meaning.
So, if you're ready to make a move the time is ripe. The best
career planning news is that you can now learn how to lock up a
high-paying job in 14 days or less! The exciting, new
