Employee Retention

Course Overview

This practical workshop champions the cause for retention through engagement, as opposed to retention via response - prevention rather than cure. Delegates are introduced to the principles that underpin current thinking: that retention is better executed as prevention rather than cure and that understanding the impacts of a variety of relevant models, delegates will explore the costs of replacing employees, what makes someone disengage from their organisation and how you categorise employees within any retention strategy.
