Overview:

Survey after survey shows that your employees are constantly job hunting.

If you think things are okay because people aren't quitting, ask yourself: Are my employees happy or is the job market terrible?

Turnover costs are staggering. Gallup estimates replacing an employee costs anywhere from 50 to 200 percent of their annual salary. And with competition for talent at an all-time high, losing even one key employee can set your team and your budget back months.

If you've ever:

  • Been surprised when a seemingly happy employee handed in their notice
  • Struggled to find replacements who are as skilled and engaged as those who left
  • Felt frustrated watching turnover erode morale and productivity
  • Wondered what really motivates employees to stay beyond pay and perks

you're not alone and you can't afford to ignore it.

Here's the reality: Retention doesn't just happen. It takes deliberate action, clear strategies, and commitment from both leadership and managers. Without a plan, you're gambling with your most valuable resource: your people.

Areas Covered in the Session:

This webinar shows you exactly what you need to do to keep your best employees and reduce costly turnover. You will learn how to:

  • Understand what your employees really want and expect from you
  • Use employee surveys, stay interviews, and open conversations to get actionable insights
  • Help employees set and achieve career goals through skill-building and internal movement
  • Conduct gap analyses and create a skills-based pipeline for advancement
  • Train managers to support retention and remove roadblocks to employee growth
  • Get buy-in for retention strategies that focus on company-wide success, not just departmental goals
  • Align compensation, flexibility, and remote work policies with what today's employees value most
  • Put all the pieces together into a retention plan that works for your organization

Don't wait for another resignation to wake you up.
