#60. The Development Reckoning: What to Do When Your Team Can't Leave

from The Leadership Shot Hosted by Leila Bulling Towne

Hiring is slowing way down as we start 2026. For years, you've been chasing the next hire, the better candidate, the person who's finally going to solve all your problems. And the people who actually showed up? You gave them onboarding and then . . . nothing! But 66% of CEOs recently said they're cutting headcount or keeping it flat in 2026. Attrition's plummeting. Hiring's frozen. People aren't leaving. They're staying put. Which means you're stuck with teams you never bothered to develop. This is what I'm calling The Development Reckoning. In this episode, I'm sharing 5 ideas to build the people you've been ignoring as well as 5 mistakes to avoid.
