Perspectives: The September Slump
Understanding and preparing for a seasonal shift that impacts every HR team
Even the most high-performing teams go into slumps – often at inconvenient times.
The September slump spares no one, creeping in as summer closes and employee engagement wanes. From starting pitchers to the stock market, everyone seems to suffer as school gets back in session and shorter days set in.
But the most resilient organizations minimize the damage by recognizing the reasons behind performance dips, preparing for them, and helping employees offset their effects before crunch time (Q4).
HR teams and business leaders looking to sustain engagement and production should consider the causes first. In this month’s webinar, our expert panel will cover factors like vacation hangover, seasonal depression, shift in work-life balance, and energy depletion.
Join us to:
- Identify the early warning signs and root causes of the September Slump.
- Learn proven intervention strategies to proactively prevent engagement dips before they impact performance.
- Evaluate different approaches for diverse employee populations, including remote workers, working parents, and global teams.
- Develop partnership strategies with managers and leaders to create organization-wide support for fall transition planning.
- Create sustainable practices that protect your own HR team’s energy while supporting the broader organization
