You Worked Hard to Recruit Them, Now Work Hard to Retain Them
|
|
presented by Ginny Curley, Ph.D., Power Your Partnerships LLC
|
|
You find just the right candidate. They start strong on day one. And they are gone by day thirty. What happened? The average business spends over $4700 to recruit each new hire (SHRM, 2022). You can't afford to ignore the changing landscape of employee retention. This session will outline the key steps that must be taken in the early days of employment to retain new employees so they become your legacy employees.
By the end of this session, presidents will:
- Assess the cost of turnover to their organization
- Identify the five main reasons people stay in their jobs
- Evaluate how their organization meets – or falls short of – these five considerations

Stop Doing the Work for Them...How to Develop Good Employees Into Great Employees
|
|
presented by Ginny Curley, Ph.D., Power Your Partnerships LLC
|
|
We've all been there. An employee asks a question and we answer it. Over time we begin to wonder why this employee is coming to us with more questions, not less. This session will identify how to empower employees to move from dependence to independence. In the process, we will touch on a few essential steps to delegation and employee independence.
By the end of this session, presidents will:
- Describe the impact of dependent employees
- Practice asking questions that develop independent employees
- Consider delegation techniques that reinforce independence
