Rethinking Retention - Advanced Practices In Employee Retention - Webinar By Trainhr

Overview : As competition for top talent increases as the economy rebounds

, executives are increasingly concerned about employee turnover. They are now aware of the tremendous cost of losing a valuable employee (up to three times their salary), so they have begun to expect a more rigorous and data based approach to employee retention. Unfortunately tight HR budgets and relatively low turnover rates (due to the weak economy) have resulted in the weakening of most HR retention programs. In fact, some retention programs haven't been completely modernized in nearly a decade. To add to the problem, corporate data suggest that most current retention efforts are slow, expensive, while providing little provable impact on retention.

At the same time that employee turnover is about to increase, employee loyalty is at an all-time low and new generations of employees express little interest in long-term corporate employment. Taken together with advancements in recruiting and the spread of social networks, turnover rates among top talent are likely to soon skyrocket. Rather than minor tinkering, a complete rethinking of the retention strategy and the available retention tools are required.

Now is an ideal time to benchmark and learn both current best practices and emerging "next practices" from leading firms because a recent survey of CEO's revealed that out of all business functions, CEO's expect the most change in Talent Management. It's unusual to have a people management function at the top of CEO's attention, so this next year is the perfect time to identify and understand the most effective retention tools, strategies and approaches.
