In the current economic climate, nobody wants to backfill roles you didn’t plan for later down the line. And if you can’t compete on salary and stability, what is your next line of defence (that is actually within your control and budget)? The answer: Build a reputation of great leadership.
In this webinar, we’ll uncover strategies to help you retain developers, rebuild trust in leadership, attract top devs and encourage them to stay in your team.
What you’ll learn:
The state of the tech landscape right now, and its impact on retention.
The top reasons devs leave their roles.
How to practically start competing beyond salary and stability in your team, and how to leverage it when hiring.
How to rebuild trust in leadership to help developers join, stay and thrive.
Salary discussions are some of the most critical discussions to happen between managers and employees – but often the constraints are already set in company wide budget meetings.
Managers who know how to advocate for their team members are better set up to navigate these budget conversations. A solid budget can make or break how satisfied your new hires and existing team members are with their compensation. To make matters even more complicated, salary is an individual experience that should be tackled on a case-by-case basis.
Should you match a counter offer? Should team members with similar roles earn the same? Making mistakes when it comes to salary can be really painful and can cost you high performing team members in the long run.
In this event, we’ll deep dive into these challenges to set you up to win in salary conversations with your tech team.
