87%
According to LinkedIn’s Global Talent Trends report, 87 percent of professionals want to work for a company that aligns with their values and has a clear mission. Today’s candidates look beyond salary. They are drawn to purpose, culture, and impact. For employers, clearly communicating your mission and demonstrating your values is essential to attracting and retaining top talent.
Having a fair paycheck is just the starting point. To keep the right people, you need to offer more than compensation. A salary alone doesn’t create a fulfilled life or inspire long-term commitment. People are looking for a culture where growth is encouraged, self-development is part of the norm, and their work has lasting personal and professional value. They want to know that being part of your company will benefit them far beyond the paycheck.
