Team Approach to Employee Retention
Retaining quality new employees has become an increasingly important concern for employers. The newest generation of individuals entering the work force are often misunderstood and mishandled by managers. This misunderstanding and mishandling can result in disgruntled employees and high turnover rates. One of the most fundamental requirements for effective managing is the ability to understand others' motives, values, and goals, not imposing one's own on others. This means understanding and accepting that people are different. This workshop is devoted to helping managers understand this new generation; what motivates them and what does not motivate them. It suggests a flexible team-management approach which allows for some individual freedom to manage time and work, and stresses feedback and recognition.
