- Nurture the soil that your people are planted in with care, good feedback, open communication, delegation, and investment.

- People want to discover a place that taps into their heart\u2019s desires and gives them a chance to test it out.
- Figure out what people\u2019s flight risk assessment will be. Is this candidate in risk of leaving and finding something better? The impact of losing them would be considerable if they\u2019re a high potential candidate.
- If you claim to have an open door policy for communication with your people, it has to be more than just a literal open door into your office.

- Investing in people increases your return on investment.
- Get the right people in the right job, doing the right thing, in the right way, with the right support. Give them the right training, achieving the right objectives and goals, with the right succession planning model.
