Overview
The aim
To give managers practical ways to spot people planning to leave, and to keep hold of them.
About the programme
Someone resigning often comes as a complete shock. Even if you saw the warning signs, and just didn't do anything about them, the number of thoughts that simultaneously rush into your head is immense. Why are they leaving? Could I have stopped it? How much is it going to cost to find a replacement? How will we manage without them?
There are many different reasons why employees might want to leave, and money isn't usually one of them. This programme highlights the 3 key reasons why employees might want to leave - stress, feeling undervalued, or just plain boredom - and demonstrates, for managers, how to spot when an employee might be thinking of going, how to find out what has caused that situation and how to prevent it from turning into a resignation.
The learning points are suitable for all levels of management, and are easy to understand – and the use of recognisable characters makes them even more memorable.
