COURSE DESCRIPTION: Ka-ching, Ka-ching, Ka-ching. You can just hear the ringing of cash registers every time a valuable employee leaves your company. The hard costs of recruiting replacements and training new hires are easy to see. But it’s easy to overlook the staggering “soft” costs of high attrition – brain drain, diminished morale and declining productivity as the organization adapts to new people who are scaling the learning curve.
As you sit reading this message, third-party and internal recruiters are conspiring to steal your best talent. Don’t let it happen. Great companies, and great managers, view employee retention as a competitive advantage. They realize a fundamental truth that average companies simply don’t “get”:
The hard work of retaining top talent starts the day the candidate shows up for work and never ends.
And it’s not just about offering security or throwing money at people. Today, your top competitors are devoting tremendous thought, resources and creativity into figuring out how to improve the “value proposition” they offer employees. If you’re not doing the same, you risk losing the top-performing employees that make your company great.
We asked retention expert Barry Deutsch – a speaker who’s received rave ratings from your peers for past events -- to lay out a blueprint for helping companies lower costly turnover and boost employee performance. Participants in this 90-minute conference, designed for both HR executives and line managers, will learn the five key steps in Barry’s model:
-
Develop SUCCESS FACTORS that precisely and clearly convey expectations of success and that motivate your top performers.
-
Capture the passion and engagement of your top performers by understanding their personal motivation and the linkage to your company goals, mission and values.
-
Improve hiring and firing. Retention starts with great hiring. Over 70% of all problems in retention occur because of what happened in the hiring process. Layered on top of hiring mistakes is the problem that we let non-performers hang around too long.
-
Get a culture check-up. Can you describe your culture in specific terms? Is your culture dysfunctional in keeping ad motivating top performers?
-
Implement a success-based management system to measure, reward, and recognize top performers. How does your existing system reinforce and drive exceptional success on a flawless and consistent basis?
