A Prediction Unlike Any Other - Prof. Anthony Klotz
Episode description
Prof. Anthony Klotz debuts Season 2 of Why I Left. His research on resignations lead to predicting a major pandemic-related labor shift resulting in the Great Resignation in May 2021.
He is fascinated by the causes and effects of how and why people resign, and his work has been featured in Harvard Business Review, MIT Sloan Management Review and The Wall Street Journal.
His theory has continually been supported by record numbers of resignations in the US and globally. Its an honor to have him on the show, as his work is clearly an inspiration for our discussions.
Enjoy!
