The Complete Guide on
Attracting and Retaining Your Top People
Despite
economic changes, the issue of employee retention is here to stay. The
labor shortage that plagued employers at the height of the economic boom
has not vanished. It may be off the radar now, but it is returning
strong as ever.
Successful organizations realize employee retention is integral to
sustaining their leadership and growth in the marketplace. Most
businesses focus on employee retention when employee turnover starts to
increase. However, good organizations make employee retention a core
element of their talent management and organizational development
strategy. Those that fail to make employee retention a priority are at
risk of losing their top talented people to the competition.
This book shows you how to design an effective employee retention
strategy that provides a comprehensive road map for not only attracting
and keeping talented employees, but for motivating and engaging them to
achieve a higher level of performance.
It also
offers dozens of case studies and hundreds of tips and ideas from a wide
range of industries and businesses. This information will help you reduce
employee turnover costs, improve employee retention, and increase job satisfaction.
"Greg Smith has packed a ton of
useful information into this little book. He makes a convincing
case for retaining those employees we work so hard to recruit. No
matter your organization, you can find dozens of useful ideas for
treating people right and providing the benefits that matter to them.
If this book had been available years ago, many leaders could have
avoided much trial and error."
Dr. Carl Patton
President, Georgia State University

Employee Retention is LESS Expensive Than Replacing Them
The cost of attracting,
recruiting, hiring, training, and getting new people up to speed is
tremendously more costly as well as more wasteful than most realize.
Productivity is directly tied to employee retention. Studies from the
Gallup organization show employees who have an above average attitude
toward their work will generate 38 percent higher customer satisfaction
scores, 22 percent higher productivity, and 27 percent higher profits
for their companies.
In this book, you’ll read about companies with work environments that
attract and retain people—and where people are willing to give their best.
These environments aren’t expensive. In fact, they save money. In
most cases, they improve retention and productivity without lavish
salaries or bonuses. And they certainly lower the expense of continually
hiring and training new people.
