Keep employees on board … low-cost ways any supervisor or manager can use

HR Skills Series … Retention

Experts predict a serious shortage of employees in the United States over the next decade as Baby Boomers begin to retire. If retaining people isn’t one of your top priorities, Retention will convince you to make it one immediately.

Peter Garber delivers hundreds of low-cost ways to reduce employee turnover and provide a more motivating work environment – one that will make employees look forward to coming to work each day.

In nine chapters, the book focuses on two challenges: How to keep employees from going to another organization and keep them interested and focused on their jobs. You’ll learn how to:

• Clarify your expectations and make sure employees are on the same page as you
• Let people know you value them and want them to stay on the team
• Groom employees for more responsibility
• Give appropriate rewards when employees make significant contributions
• Keep employees informed without overwhelming them
• Give employees the little extras they want that make a big difference
• Listen to people, address their concerns and find new ways to achieve your objectives using non-traditional approaches
• Find out why employees leave your company

This book is part of the HR Skills Series designed to help managers plan for and manage changes in such areas as consumer demand, workforce turnover, production and performance standards.
