National talent firm creates a new approach to tackle the Great Resignation of 2021: M3 Placement and Partnership creates a method to prevent talent losses on your team

Posted on October 18, 2021

Albany, NY : M3 Placement and Partnership announced its newest offering, Workforce EQ, a new service to provide companies with a proven method to identify gaps or issues that may lead to talent loss or team burnout. With Workforce EQ, clients will have a trusted neutral partner to uncover those areas that are not coming up in engagement surveys and internal meetings. This new service analyzes performance in the key areas that affect recruitment and retention and then matches them with an HR expert to tackle these areas, leading to higher levels of recruitment, engagement and retention.


“As companies look at the national statistics of today’s labor market, many are wondering if they are doing all they can to retain their employees. We know that once a team loses a key member, finding a replacement can feel daunting and is extremely expensive. Our experience and research has shown us that there are proactive engagement strategies and recruitment methods companies can use to combat the high resignation rates and disengagement statistics and we want to help,” said Mary Malone McCarthy, founder and CEO of M3 Placement and Partnership. 


At a time when a guiding compass is needed most, we’re applying our research and team of experts to create Workforce EQ, a new service that provides companies with a proven method to identify gaps that may lead to talent loss or team burnout. Workforce EQ is a powerful tool that goes beyond resources and surveys, coupling a leader’s care and concern for their team with top HR leaders that will be a key partner in guiding organizations through such challenging times.

About: M3 Placement and Partnership is a trusted partner in talent acquisition and executive searches and a guide in tackling the strategic human resource needs of companies of all sizes. At M3, we are on a mission to find better talent for the organizations we work with. We believe when superior talent is placed in key leadership roles, change is created to impact organizations and lives for the better, and that creates a better world.
