What do you think of when employee benefits are mentioned? Traditional offerings like health insurance and retirement plans are likely the first things that come to mind. Organizations often fail to go beyond these standard benefits, and if they do, it’s with a few additions that are selected without much thought and seldom improved. Today’s workforce is experiencing a new level of empowerment, and that comes with high expectations potential employers need to meet.

We are almost at the halfway mark of 2022, which makes this a perfect time to assess your financial progress and take action over the next six months.

Showing genuine appreciation for employees is a must for any organization that wants to weather the Great Resignation. A company where employees don’t receive positive feedback and frequent appreciation is one they’ll seek to leave before long. Gifts are a wonderful way to make employees feel valued and recognized — if done the right way. Personalized, meaningful gifts that team members actually want go much further than yet another branded mug they don’t need or a gift card to a restaurant they

If you picture retirement planning and taxes as a Venn Diagram, there is lots of overlap between these two areas of personal finance.
