Finding and Keeping Employees: Dr. Josh Duplantis Shares Best Practices in the Tricky Employment Market
Posted On July 25, 2023
Finding and keeping good employees today is very hard. The shortages driven by the Baby Boomer retirement have begun making their mark in the workplace. And even as populous as the Millennials are, there aren’t enough of them to replace the Boomers. Employers are pulling their hair out. Employees have their pick.
Dr. Josh Duplantis is the Dean of Workforce Development for Coastal Alabama Community College and saw this coming years ago. Today he works with employers to help them craft recruiting and retention plans. He and I discuss the essense of the demographic challenge and we get into details on “progressive employment” which some employers are using to meet their workforce challenges.
