What do Employees want? What keeps them eager and ready to tackle the next challenge and committed to staying with their current employers?
Thats the $64 million question, and companies are working overtime to answer it correctly for their key employees.
In this issue of Workforce Strategies, we analyze the drivers of employee retention, identify the benefits and other perks employees really value (sometimes more than money), discuss which management styles are most likely to enhance employee retention strategies, look at the importance of a cooperative workplace, offer some practical advice on developing and implementing an effective retention program (including a case study of one particularly successful strategy), and explain the role the HR manager should play as the "chief engagement officer."
