Successful Strategies to Retain Your Best Employees
What is worse than having one of your go-to employees give their notice? Replacing solid performers is a huge challenge and many estimate the time and money required to replace employees can easily exceed their annual wage. Be proactive and create a environment that reduces turnover and increases a strong corporate culture. Whether you have a staff of 4 or 400, you'll leave with great insights from Maxine Hart, Chief Human Resources Officer of Reading Cooperative Bank.
Recruiting and retaining employees is a major challenge facing companies and organizations right now in this employment market. Organizations can no longer leave the recruitment or the retention to good will and chance as employees have more options now than they have had in previous years.
Maxine Hart of Reading Cooperative Bank will share lessons on how to improve employee engagement and how to refocus recruitment efforts to both attract and retain your top performing employees.
