Employee Retention
It is a competitive market and organizations need to focus on creating differentiation if they are to retain their best and brightest.
The Center for American Progress reported that losing an employee costs upwards of 213% of their annual salary.
That is a lot of money.
Some of the other impacts of employee turnover are:
- Negative word of mouth by employees who leave, and sometimes by those who stay behind, making it heard to recruit top talent.
- The psychological impacts of losing a long-term team member, which impacts employee morale
- The holes that are left in the staffing levels, leaving the remaining employees to pick up the work, which can lead to a loss in productivity, missing deadlines or missing work.
The easiest way to differentiate and create greater employee retention is to focus on creating more positive emotions inside of your workforce.
By listening to, growing and appreciating your employees, you give them a reason to want to stay on your team and with your organization.
