“I told my boss about you…”

I’ve been absolutely thrilled with the response to our launch earlier this week! So many people have referred WhyWork to their friends, family and acquaintances who lead businesses. I’ve enjoyed hearing about every type of referral, but my favorites so far start with “I told my boss about your services…”

Why are these my favorite referrals? Because WhyWork strives to provide a different kind of HR consulting service - one that puts employees at the center of the mission. Many employees (myself included) have been on the receiving end of consulting services that clearly aim to make you more “efficient” or “productive” at your job. We’ve answered lengthy surveys seeking ways to better organize our time or serve our customers more efficiently. Now the most forward-thinking leaders realize - if you can’t make your employees happy, how will you make your customers happy?

WhyWork takes a truly human-centric approach and it shows in our referrals! So if you’d like to make some changes at work, but you’re not sure how to approach the conversation with leadership, let us help with this simple template:

Hello [leader’s name],

The past two years have been a trying time for organizations and individuals alike - no one has been immune to the upheaval, uncertainty and loss that have come to define these times. At first, we felt these changes on the individual level, but now we’re watching them play out in organizations as well. This is why I wanted to bring the services of WhyWork to your attention.

WhyWork is a consulting service that helps businesses build personalized retention strategies. For the past year, we’ve watched organizations try to retain staff through across-the-board changes that have fallen short of fulfilling the needs of all employees. WhyWork digs in, person by person, to build strategies that are as unique as we are. I believe in our organization, and I believe in WhyWork’s process to help us a build a stronger workforce. You can find more information in the link below - I’m happy to put you in touch with the founder if you have any questions!

Sincerely,

[your most valuable employee]
