As 2022 saw the slowdown of the Great Resignation, the larger story took a turn and became mostly about layoffs at large and small companies around the world. Fortunately, while a quarter of survey respondents to our 2023 Corporate Alumni Benchmarking Report<\/a> conducted layoffs, only 11% reported that 500 or more employees were impacted.<\/p>\n

While most alumni programs did not undergo a significant restructuring, this year’s research findings illuminated an increasing sophistication in program structure and a marked improvement in alumni team size, employee lifecycle enhancements, engagement, and the return on investment. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The data shows that as programs continue to evolve and improve onboarding and offboarding practices as well as day-to-day activities and engagement, business driver results will also grow.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bottom line: The value of having a corporate alumni program has never been higher.<\/em><\/p>\n
