People Retention

People retention offers numerous benefits, making it a vital aspect of a successful talent lifecycle. Retaining experienced and skilled employees saves time and resources on recruitment and training. In addition, continuity helps maintain productivity and ensures a smoother workflow. Long-term employees become familiar with the company’s values, culture, and processes, contributing to a more cohesive and efficient work environment. Retention also fosters a sense of loyalty and commitment and contributes to increased job satisfaction and morale.

Assessment

Assess your current retention rate and why people leave. Establish how an increased rate helps you achieve your strategy.

Planning

Behavioural, procedural, and social interventions designed to improve the rate of retention through meaningful engagement.

Delivery

Auditing, developing, validating that retention is increasing, course correction, and monitoring

Assessment

Working on a project basis, we assess using observation, interview, review of feedback, and use of governance functions with team members.

  • Identifying quantitative and qualitative data to assess current rates
  • Identifying work environment factors and how they contribute
  • Identifying the cost of a less-stable workforce in terms of productivity
  • Assess the feelings, motivations, and emotions of the current team
  • Assess the impact of leadership, communication, work-life balance, and personal development on the retention rate.
  • Assess how effectively retention is measured

Planning

Working on a project, or bi-annual basis we facilitate the implementation of your plan to increase the retention rate, to deliver better overall results.

  • Building plans to reduce the impact of true causes of departure
  • Designing workplace environmental factors – both physical and emotional that enhance the experience of your ideal team member
  • Plan interventions for leaders and managers to encourage and build on great retention strategies
  • Reinforcing the existing positives as a priority, risk assessing changes
  • Building the metrics that will show change is happening and delivering what was expected

Delivery

Working on a retained semi-permanent basis, or on a time-bound project basis we ensure you are able to make progress in overall performance.

  • Ongoing development for leaders and team members
  • Testing for the level of change occurring, including cost reduction, and increased retention rate.
  • Tracking that each modification planned is delivering what was expected
  • Advising on improvements to measurement systems
  • Reviewing recruiting and retention strategies to ensure the right people join and stay
  • Transition people into new roles where necessary
