Across Sri Lanka, organizations are asking the same question: “How do we retain good people when the world feels open and opportunities feel limitless?”. The answer no longer lies in salary or policy alone. The future of work will be decided by how people experience leadership day-to-day.

At Great Place To Work®, we have seen that trust in the direct supervisor is one of the strongest predictors of retention, engagement, and advocacy. Yet, while many organizations collect feedback, few truly translate it into manager capability.

Join us for this 20-minute session where we bridge the gap between measuring trust and building it. We will explore how to move from “boss” behaviors to “coaching” conversations, ensuring your middle managers are equipped for the responsibility they carry.

  A clear understanding of why people managers are the strongest drivers of trust, engagement, and retention — and how daily leadership behaviours shape your workplace culture more than policies or perks.
