Overview:
Does your organization, like many others, invest in attracting top talent? But that’s only half the battle - retaining your best employees is where long-term success is truly won. High turnover isn’t just disruptive; it’s expensive. Beyond recruiting costs, losing a key team member can impact productivity, morale, customer relationships, and institutional knowledge.
Yet, many lose their high performers simply because they never ask this most important question: What will make you stay? Stay Interviews are one of the most effective, underused leadership tools for improving retention, strengthening engagement, and building a culture where employees feel valued, supported, and heard.
- Identify and address concerns early: This allows managers to proactively recognize potential problems that might cause someone to consider leaving. This could include workload issues, lack of recognition, career development or other problems that should not be ignored
- Build trust and communication: The process of conducting stay interviews demonstrates that their manager and organization value their employees and their input and therefore making them more likely to stay
- Most importantly reduce turnover costs: By proactively dealing with issues and improving employee satisfaction, they can help reduce employee turnover, saving the organization time and money associated with hiring and training new staff
