In Quint Studer's most recent leadership column he says, "A person reached out to me sometime back about a potential job change. A company had called him to recruit him. It is always exciting to know a company feels highly enough about us to reach out. The conversation made me think about how employees approach new job offers. Are they excited about moving on to a great opportunity? Or are they mostly relieved to be escaping bad circumstances? And what role has the current company played in bringing them to this decision?"

"I wrote an article called 'The Long Goodbye.' The point was when a person leaves an organization, it is not usually a spur-of-the-moment decision. My message is each day to re-recruit your employees. Great companies have great employee retention. That said, regardless of how great a company is (or is not), it’s important for the person considering making a change to be as objective as possible in their thought processes." In his column this week, he shares some advice on what to consider when contemplating a new job. Read more here: https://loom.ly/VCSpU5o

Quint Studer said in his latest leadership column, "My cousin Al says two things, we all want the ability to love and to be loved. John Myslak accomplished both. John was a good friend to me and many others. He was a great son, father, and husband. Due to cancer, John left this earth on June 30, 2019, at the age of 54. In his last few days, he was surrounded by friends and family. John was an only child. His father said no parent should have to bury their child. How true. John left this earth teaching. He was helpful right to the end."

"John shared with me that while he did not want to die, he felt good that he had been able to let people know he loved them. He looked at me and said, 'Do not wait to tell people you love them.' Since that day, I have told people I love them way more often." In Quint's leadership column this week, he shares about his good friend, John Myslak, and some of the advice he gave.
