#54 - The Great Resignation

The Great Resignation is upon us, and if some of your top talent hasn't given you their notice, it may be happening soon.  Or not, depending on what you choose to do.  With plenty of time to contemplate options, people are quitting jobs at a record pace.  But wise leaders learn how to listen to their people's needs and desires, create a sense of purpose that motivates far beyond a paycheck, and creates a safe working space by allowing people to be human and make the occasional mistake.  Keep your IT Security team intact with these concepts and much more.
