2020 - Using Stay Interviews to Improve Employee Retention & Engagement in 2020

OVERVIEW
Stay interviews are an important employee engagement and retention tool that serves as a means of re-recruiting your workforce – because what attracted your employees is often different from what will keep them. Stay interviews tend to improve engagement, productivity, employee loyalty and commitment - as well as retention.
In this webinar you will learn how to prepare for, conduct & follow through on stay interviews to improve retention.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
Turnover today is rampant because employees can be choosy with:
• the lowest unemployment rate in 48 years
• for the first time ever in the U.S. there are more job openings than eligible candidates
• over half of U.S. employees saying it is ‘somewhat likely’ or ‘very likely’ they can find a job as good as the one they have
• 50% of employees & 60% of millennials considering new employment opportunities
• the average tenure for employees in their 20’s being less than 18 months
And turnover is expensive with the cost of replacing a:
• $10-hour employee over $3,000
• $30-50,000 job over $8,000
• $100,000 often over $200,000
However, engaged employees when compared to unengaged employees have:
• 65% less turnover in low-turnover organizations
• and 25% lower turnover in high-turnover organizations

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
It is easy to make the business case for retaining your organization’s talent because turnover is both rampant & expensive.
And to make matters worse – the most talented employees:
• Have more opportunities available to them
• Are the most expensive to replace
• Are the quickest to leave if they are unengaged
• May take top performers with them
• May take customers with them
Stay Interviews have become a very popular and effective means of reducing turnover with supervisors meeting individually with their direct reports to learn why they are staying or might leave - and what the supervisor can do to improve each employee's work experience. To know how to encourage employees to stay, we have to ask what only they know. Exit Interviews are too late.
WHO WILL BENEFIT
Any Leader, Manager or Supervisor [HR, Production, Accounting, Sales, IT, etc.] – who wants to increase employee engagement and/or retention.
