When resources are tight, and getting tighter, it could be the perfect time to add a residency to your staff team. Residency is a two year ramp towards full time employment that gives you an inside track on knowing that next hire. Residency is a way to extend the length & effectiveness of seasoned staff who are on your team. Plus, you can take the guesswork out of a permanent hire. It addresses the recession, the Great Resignation, and gets young digital-native-young-20-somethings at your table with less risk. It will raise the temperature of leadership development for your team and sharpen all staff around them.
