Igniting Engagement: The Key to Retaining Top Talent

We kick off Development Day with Claire DeCarteret, Managing Director, APAC at Gallup, who will provide an exclusive deep dive into Gallups ‘State of the Global Workplace Survey’. This is a fantastic opportunity to explore key data on how we measure up against industry leaders both in ANZ and internationally when it comes to engagement and retaining our most valuable assets: our people. Claire will discuss the most pressing employee pain points and areas challenging leaders. She will share insights on how to better equip yourself and your organisation to foster a culture of engagement and retain our top talent.

For the first time in history, we are leading a workforce that spans up to five distinct generations — each with unique values, communication styles, work preferences, and motivations. This diversity can often challenge our unconscious biases and leadership approaches. In our second session of the day, Kylie Denton, Founder & Director, Performance Advisory Group, will guide you through a comprehensive understanding of generational traits and how they influence workplace interactions.

You will learn practical strategies and psychological insights to bridge generational gaps, foster collaboration, and build an inclusive environment that capitalises on the strengths of every generation. This session is designed to help you embrace the diversity of your multigenerational workforce, driving innovation, engagement, and productivity to create a more dynamic and cohesive work environment. By the end, you’ll be equipped with the tools to lead with confidence, ensuring your workplace thrives across all age groups.

Join us for the final session of Development Day where our expert panel, Bryan Wardrop, Country Manager – NZ at Loscam, Sarah Hudson, Learning & Development Specialist at Arrow Energy Pty Ltd, and David Hollibone, Head of Customer Operations at Bupa, will delve into the strategies that drive engagement and retention in today’s dynamic work environment. Learn practical approaches for crafting an engaged, loyal workforce and discover how to build a culture that motivates people to stay, grow, and succeed. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to equip yourself with the knowledge to navigate the future of work.
