Purpose: To provide the understanding, framework, and tools for retaining your most talented employees.
CEO's, CHCO's, managers, and human capital professionals are all searching for what they can do to keep their good, talented employees. Career minded "free-agents" plus loyalty-less organizations have combined to create a sort of "here today, gone tomorrow" workplace. Add to that the increasing shortage of skilled workers and you might think there is a perfect storm effect taking place. Particularly hard-hit in terms of retention and shortages have been the health care and high-tech industries, the latter reporting turnover rates as high as 30 percent.
Organizations, including the armed forces, are turning to retention bonuses to attract and keep talented people and critical skill sectors. There are also reports of an amazing array of perks and benefits being offered to make employees’ lives more comfortable. Some organizations offer dry-cleaning services, car-detailing, free meals, concierge services to run errands, child-care, pet-sitting, gym programs, and chair massages. But you can’t buy love. Throwing money or gifts at people isn’t enough to keep them. If they don’t like the company, the people they work with, the boss or the way that they’re treated, they will still leave.
Finding the keys to employee retention means more profitable companies, happier, more productive employees, and more satisfied customers. Our RETAINING TOP TALENT program provides the clues to solving the problem. We can't do it for you but we can help you do it better.
