Companies face a number of challenges in today’s landscape, including high employee turnover and political polarization. These issues make it difficult to keep the fabric of their company intact and to promote a unified workforce. Both employee retention and unity can be addressed by strategically launching a network of employee resource groups (ERGs).
A successful ERG program can be used to combat the negative effects of the Great Resignation by giving a voice to employees, enticing new hires, and supporting a company’s diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) efforts.
