Here’s what you’ll learn

Three shifts in 17 minutes.

This is not a talk about a generation. It is the trust-first approach Ant teaches leaders who are responsible for developing early-career talent.

  1. 01

    Build trust before correction

    Understand why connection creates greater leadership influence — and why correction without it rarely changes behavior.

  2. 02

    Give feedback that lands

    Learn why people receive the same challenge differently depending on the leader delivering it, and how to earn that permission.

  3. 03

    Develop, don’t just manage

    Move beyond getting performance out of people and start intentionally developing the ones you want to keep.

42%

of voluntary leavers, Gallup 2024

The cost of doing nothing

Nearly half who quit believed their leader could have stopped it.

In Gallup’s 2024 study, 42% of employees who left voluntarily said their manager or organization could have prevented their departure. Each of those exits is the cost of a hire, a ramp, and a gap in the team — spent on people you already had.

Trust is the part of retention most leaders skip. It’s also the part this briefing is built around.
