Could Technology Halt the Great Resignation Wave?

The Great Resignation Wave As I work for a tech company, I’ve been wondering if tech can halt the Great Resignation wave. An estimated one in four employees quit their jobs in 2021.

This massive exodus caught most people off-guard, except Professor Anthony Klotz at Texas A&M University.

Resignations are his specialty and he predicted this.

Why Women Quit More Offten Than Men? The reasons are quite clear. The pay gap has been holding steady (in the USA) at around 84% for the last 20 years. With men typically earning more, women often give up their jobs to assume primary responsibility for the child – and eldercare.

What Can Be The Solution?

Businesses – HR leaders in particular – need to find ways to halt the Great Resignation. If employers had used technology, like sentiment analysis of digital conversations, these losses were likely predictable.
