It can be quite afflictive for troupe when a expert employee jumps ship to join a rival . When someone who was invested in heavily leaves the troupe just like that , it ’s understandable that it can produce bad blood . Nevertheless , companies in such a situation are wise not to struggle the transfer , says Johan Grootscholten of Green Career Consult . " Companies are much better off cooperating , because then you create an embassador or else of someone who is minus about his premature job . “Johan Grootscholten ( leave ) with his colleagues Ruud Schlenter , Bart van Eikema Hommes and Evert Verboom
Green Career Consult has been participating in several farming sectors since 2008 , including greenhouse gardening . Johan himself has facilitated many successful hire over the years . During the preceding HortiContact , familiar face appear again and again at a dissimilar point of view for a different company . That seemed obvious mighty then , but in practice such a transfer often was a lot of work . And not everyone is always equally glad with a switch .
Step 1 : Expectation management"When a candidate is interested in a vacuum , the first affair we do together with a candidate is to have a look at their contract bridge . This prevents problems further down the line in the transfer process .

Many contracts currently include a non - compete article , a non - trading clause or confidentiality rules . Sometimes they are very concise and clearly formulated . In that case , our advice to an employee is that they should stay at their current military position .
However , if the judicial admission is formulated in more ecumenical language , for example along the lines of ' not switch over to a party in " our sector " ' , then the chance are often that an employee will get away with a transferee and that a transfer is potential in a proper manner . "
Step 2 : How does the employer reactAs soon as the raw contract bridge is in reality sign , the employee will have to inform his current employer . " Many companies reply positively , despite the logical disappointment " , Johan says . " That is also wise , because that employee has already moved on in their drumhead . Then it ’s crucial to by rights coordinate with the competitor as a company and , if necessary , to check that the switcher will not be imply for a while with the former employer . The former employer may then also have the chance to look for new stave . This guarantees a liquid modulation .

unluckily for employee who leave , not every company react positively to a transfer . " Sometimes the great unwashed are dead vindictive and they put candidates under pressure to blockade a transport , even going to court . That ’s not recommended as an employer , but it does happen . It happens that a nominee under press still succumbs and stay , with doubtless a serious drop in their motivation . unremarkably threat do n’t work , and a cause often does n’t offer a solution for an furious employer . Nine times out of ten , the employee will win the motor lodge cause . "
Sellers take their byplay with themBoth positive and negatively charged reactions pass in all sectors , but Johan does see conflict between certain radical of company . " Breeders are in the main all open to transfers , just like producers of plant protective cover products , and although fertiliser manufacturers sometimes respond more negatively , transference still personate few problems . "
interchange between greenhouse veg and cosmetic agriculturalist never causes any problems . " We scarcely ever point out any obstacles , and the same is true for technology companies and supplier . "
Most problems are found in Commerce Department . " In the trading business , short - term thinking dominates . Sellers are strongly focused on their customer and build up personal relationships . If such a salesperson then decides to switch , the customers can disappear with them . In the pillow slip of magnanimous volumes this can have a major impact on the company that the sales representative is go forth . That is why transfers in the trading job are often extra difficult . "
Sellers are not only involved in the fruit and vegetable trade , but also in breeding . " Not all sales are the same . Much also depends on the type of product . For lesson , a breeder also has salespeople , but they trade a more distinctive product . If they make the substitution it will be more as ' technical adviser ' , without admit along the total ejaculate portfolio . With a tomato plant , on the other hand , the same tomato can be betray by different traders . Then a transfer is much more sensitive . "
The more pressure there is , the greater the risk of problemsIn recent years transfers seem to lead to more unrest and upheaval than before . " How precarious a transfer is often depends on how well the industry is doing . In the year before Green Career Consult started in 2008 , things went a little flake more mechanically in the sphere . In greenhouse horticulture this is now also the case , but in the trading line it ’s become a lot harder to earn money than back then . The tolerance have decrease compared to ten years ago . That think things can be more nerve-racking . If , at such a time , a salesman read his deal with him , the impact and damage is also greater . Then the risk of rising emotions also increase considerably . "
condemnable circleDepartures or transfer are often inconvenient , but especially when society are also amply engage in fetch in professionals . " In 2014 there were more highly qualified candidate than there were emptiness . In 2017 , that teeter-totter tilted and since then candidates have been in the position where they can call for almost anything they want . Money is of import , but not the most important .
Candidates also face at other aspects within a company . In addition to being able-bodied to work a day less and being able-bodied to realize personal goals , thing like atm are crucial to employees . So companies that protest against carry-over are doing themselves a disservice . Candidates get hold out about that .
It ’s the forward-looking caller that regard sustainability both in production and in workforce , that get laid how to hold back faculty and attract new personnel . In practice , these same companionship also come along to be more positive about transfers .
So what you see is that business concern that fight transfers will have increasing trouble prevent and recruiting faculty , according to Johan . " The only manner to fail that vicious R-2 is to accept your losses with a transference and maintain a unspoiled atmosphere . Only this elbow room will a whipper become an embassador for their former company . "
