Many business owners don’t have a problem keeping
their poorer employees. The
big problem is keeping the good employees – the ones that see greener
pastures elsewhere and leave. The
process of keeping the good employees is one of major importance and one
that few companies take time to embrace.
As it has become painfully clear:
it is less expensive to retain employees than retrain existing one
or train new ones. Here’s a
book that addresses this critical issue.
Interviewing and making a concerted effort to find
the right person for the right position can be exhausting and very
expensive. The time taken to
create job descriptions, to lay out the parameters of that job, to
envision the type of person needed to make that position effective, and to
sit down and meet interested bodies to fill that position can be
practically immeasurable. Yet, how much time is actually spent – after the hiring
decision has been made and the “right” person placed into that special
position – to ensure that you DON’T LOSE that important hire? How can a company, regardless of its size, keep the good
people from leaving for greener pastures?
What can be done to create an environment conducive to employee
retention that isn’t currently being undertaken?
Why is it that all the really good people end up leaving and you
can’t give the bad one’s away. And
at what cost?
Seven experts joined forces to bring the essence of
great retention to the pages of this book.
Don Sanders, Carol Hacker, Lewis Losoncy, Ed Rose, David Cox, Ed
Rose, and David Baker bring their combined experiences into focus and
provide readers with a wealth of information.
Practical answers abound in this highly readable book.
The answers may surprise you.
You may find some of the suggestions challenging to the corporate
environment in which you reside…but, they may be the difference between
losing the best and keeping them.
When the answer isn’t always “increasing
salary,” let Retrain or Retrain go to work for you and your company.
