At papilio we be­lieve that people are a com­pany’s most valu­able asset. It is key to the com­pany’s suc­cess that it can main­tain a good repu­ta­tion on the mar­ket, at­tract tal­en­ted in­di­vidu­als and de­vel­op those already doing a good job for the or­gan­isa­tion. 

But that is just the be­gin­ning! 

We also need our em­ploy­ees to be mo­tiv­ated and en­gaged, enough to stay with the or­gan­isa­tion over time. We want our lead­ers to in­spire oth­ers and drive change in a VUCA world, set a good ex­ample for oth­ers and cre­ate work­ing con­di­tions that live up to the new gen­er­a­tion’s ex­pect­a­tions. The mar­ket has changed from an em­ploy­er­’s mar­ket to an em­ploy­ee’s mar­ket and the war of tal­ent puts new de­mands on busi­nesses to de­liv­er what they prom­ise. Since it’s harder to re­cruit people from the out­side, it dra­mat­ic­ally raises the im­port­ance of de­vel­op­ing and tak­ing care of the people on the in­side. 

Those are the people who will be­come to­mor­row’s lead­ers. 

If your job ap­plic­ants can choose freely among nu­mer­ous of­fers, why should they join you?
If your cur­rent em­ploy­ees are con­tac­ted daily by headhunters and offered nu­mer­ous other jobs, why should they stay with you? These are ques­tions that every em­ploy­er should ask them­selves.
