CEOs are asking “how can we increase employee retention and engagement?”
Maybe that’s the wrong question.
What if you asked: “What are our employees grateful for?”
| How would your employees respond to these statements? | |
| 1. I am respected by my boss | |
| 2. My manager helps me to learn and grow | |
| 3. I have the tools and the necessary training to succeed | |
| 4. I’m motivated to do my best | |
| 5. I trust my manager and the company’s senior executives | |
| 6. The company deals with employee issues honestly and fairly | |
| 7. I am valued for my ideas, my talents and my diversity |
People stay where they are wanted, respected and appreciated. If you answer “Yes” to five or more – CONGRATULATIONS – your employees are grateful for more than just their paycheck.
What does this have to do with hiring?
Everything!
