The Knoxville Chamber of Commerce held a Lunch and Learn session on Tuesday. Knoxville native and Senior Consultant with Point Road Group Morgan Keasler was the guest speaker, and spoke about employee recruitment and retention. Keasler spoke with KNIA/KRLS News about one of the biggest challenges in the workplace today.

“One of the biggest challenges in the workplace today is a shift in employee and employer attitudes. People are realizing that you do not have to give up your whole life for your job and that it doesn’t need to take over everything about you. What is happening is that individuals are pushing back on unfair practices, and employers are trying to keep money, keep people happy, and they have to try and figure out how to do that. This is creating a lot of tension in the market that we are seeing.”

The Lunch and Learn series is for Knoxville Chamber members and Knoxville businesses to come together and learn about topics in the business world.
