Kicking your Employee Retention Efforts into Overdrive: Stay Interviews, Pay Transparency, and Other Effective Strategies

When a top employee resigns out of the blue, you have to replace them, manage the effect on the team and cover their work, which often leads to frustration and lower morale. Keeping a qualified employee is more efficient than recruiting and training a replacement of the same quality.

This 75-minute employee retention webinar explains why retention matters, why employees leave, the predictors and drivers of turnover and the four major reasons people quit. You'll look at retention strategies including stay interviews, employee engagement, compensation, recruitment and pay transparency.

The session also covers managing for retention, common turnover myths and how to calculate employee retention, with the message that good retention starts at hiring and lasts the whole employee life cycle.
