At TPG they are also focusing on providing flexibility, diversity and inclusion, and career planning for their employees as these are the biggest trends they are seeing when it comes to the future of work.
Speaking to the growing trend of employees wanting a clear understanding of their career path inside the organization, Anna says, “I’ve noticed people lately, before accepting an offer, want to understand what their career trajectory is going to look like, asking for a little bit more of a, I won’t call it a formula per se, but really wanting to have an understanding that they’re going to be with an organization where they can grow. So they want to trust the organization that they’re going with and hold people accountable in a different way than I’d say maybe historically you’ve seen in the market.” When it comes to finding and retaining the top talent Anilu says, “I think that the reputation of your firm is something that you can never take for granted. Because it is definitely the calling card in the market, and if that doesn’t align, or if you have a different understanding of how you’re perceived in the market, you are going to run into trouble. So I think that we keep very humble on that, but I feel very good about how we’re positioned.”
