Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past decade, employee turnover has become a very serious problem for organizations. Managing retention and keeping the turnover rate below target and industry norms is one of the most challenging issues facing business. All indications point toward the issue compounding in the future and, even as economic times change, turnover will continue to be an important issue for most job groups. Yet despite these facts employee turnover continues to be the most unappreciated and undervalued issue facing business leaders. There are a variety of reasons for this, for example, the true cost of employee turnover is often underestimated. The causes of turnover are not adequately identified, and solutions are often not matched with the causes, so they fail. Preventive measures are either not in place or do not target the issues properly, and therefore have little or no effect, and a method for measuring progress and identifying a monetary value (ROI) on retention does not exist in most organizations. 'Managing Employee Retention' is a practical guide for managers to retain their talented employees. It shows how to manage and monitor turnover and how to develop the ROI of keeping your talent using innovative retention programs. The book presents a logical process of managing retention, from identifying turnover costs and causes, designing solutions that match the causes of turnover, developing tools for tracking turnover and placing alerts when action is needed, and measuring the ROI of retention programs.

This book was released on 2023-04-21 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Document from the year 2023 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Leadership, , language: English, abstract: Retaining employees for the long term within the framework of change management processes is a challenging management task. In change management processes, a fundamental distinction must be made between incremental change management and radical change management. While incremental change happens continuously and is integrated into everyday work, radical change represents a strategic realignment of the company, which is predominantly associated with staff reductions and is intended to change the corporate culture. This is particularly true in the case of turnarounds, where cost-cutting programs play a crucial role in ensuring the long-term survival of the company. Employees are more willing to go along with incremental change, also known as continuous improvement, than with radical change, as these could also be affected by staff reductions. This stirs up fears among employees and therefore often leads to high turnover. Therefore, it is important for management to actively involve employees in the changes to empower them to act as change agents so that they can actively shape the change. To do this, it is crucial to identify the key personnel that a company cannot do without. The management and key personnel are given the task of actively accompanying the company's employees on the journey of change so that the company can grow sustainably again from a lower level after the strategic realignment so that the remaining employees have a prosperous future. Open communication and excellent transparency on the part of the management, which should also act as a unit, help to bring the employees along on the change journey in a targeted manner. However, experience has shown that 50% of all change management projects in the industry fail and 20% are implemented inadequately due to two crucial reasons, namely power struggles within management and resistance from employees. For this reason, it is imperative that a company's management team select a leadership coalition of similarly rational members who also have sufficient empathy to successfully manage the change management process, which must be done together with employees and should not be directed against them. The guiding coalition should develop a common strategic vision and practice a participative way of working involving everyone, since the goal of transformation is to change the thinking of employees, and transformation can only be brought about together with employees.

Download or read book Leadership Styles and Employee Turnover written by Sylvia Rocha and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employee turnover is one of the most challenging dilemmas in organizations. A considerable amount of research indicates that turnover is mainly a result of negative relationships between supervisors and managers, and their employees. Still, that is not to stay that employees that are considered to have good bosses never leave. If the relationship between the leader and the follower is not the sole reason for leaving an organization, then what other reasons are there for employee turnover? The purpose of this paper is to investigate why there are voluntary turnovers in government departments and the correlation it has to the supervisor’s leadership. The paper will also examine what leadership means and which leadership models in government organizations are best with high turnover and possibilities of retaining great employees. It aims to investigate the cause of voluntary turnovers and the significance of a supervisor’s style of leadership that contribute to overcoming these factors. The answer to these questions can help organizations greatly, due to the fact that it can be costly to replace employees on a regular basis. The findings reveal that employee retention and leadership style have an impact on each other. This is because the leader or supervisor has the power to change what needs to be changed and the followers are limited. If followers want change, they need to leave the organization. Specifically, a difference exists in organizations that are more focused on the employee’s overall well-being and making the employees succeed and grow in the organization. Organizations that seem to favor quality of work life for the employee tend to have higher retention rates. Furthermore, leaders should view their roles as duties rather than privileges. Leaders should be inclusive and understanding of all their employees. They need to know how to respect and appreciate all as well as how to motivate those that need the encouragement. Each employee is different, and they cannot all be dealt with the same. Leadership needs to be valued just as much as followership. There is a lot of responsibility that leaders have towards reducing employee turnover. The effect of employee turnover is not solely due to bad leadership, it includes good leadership that may need minor adjustments.

Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2020 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Generation Y, Generation Z, grade: 1.3, , language: English, abstract: This paper will discuss successful organizational strategies that attract and retain Generation Y employees, also known as Millennials and provide best practice examples from two multinational companies. The topic of employee retention is becoming more and more critical for companies. It is not just about the high fluctuation costs that arise when an employee leaves a company. Other factors will cause companies much more concern. For example, the demographic change, which makes it more difficult for companies to find good employees, or the high losses that can result from the employee's lack of attachment to the company. Given the importance of employee loyalty, the question arises as to how this can be increased. Various models are supposed to lead to higher employee loyalty. The proven theory of customer loyalty research is best suited to show the determining factors for employee loyalty.

It more closely resembles a transformational leadership style.

Download or read book Minimizing Employee Turnover by Focusing on the New Hire Process written by Anthony T. Russo and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2000-10 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation summarizes research that focused on the new hire process for a targeted population within the Computer/Telephony Industry. The primary objective of this research was to determine how to build and maintain an effective employee/employer partnership that helped ensure employee loyalty. The research design was taken from the theoretical framework of Vroom's Work Motivation model adapted using Dunnette's work with relevant job features along with Scott's theories on Jablin's model of organization-wide communications. The study examined survey responses for importance and expectation/realization ratings of 15 job features given by 150 newly hired individuals at their new hire orientation and then at the individual's eight month anniversary. In addition, focus group sessions were conducted and statistical analyses were performed. The study found that overall employees had stronger feelings about certain job feature importance than job feature expectation certainty. The results showed that employees who remained with the company exhibited a change in importance and initial expectation set. This flexibility was demonstrated in the trade-offs that employees made between attributes of intrinsic value. The Chi-Square results on intent to leave showed that the level of overall satisfaction is significantly related to intentions of leaving. Review of the exit interview data reveals that the job feature of being a "Good Boss" was the deciding factor in the individual's decision to leave the business. Overall, respondents who voluntarily resigned or who remained with the organization based their final decision on how effective the supervisor/subordinate communications and organizational citizenship capabilities of the boss were perceived. The findings support Jablin and Scott's research investigating organizational communication relationships while expanding Dunnette's definitions of critical job features. In conclusion, the findings also validated that Vroom's expectancy theory can be used when predicting behaviors in situations where choices are made such as whether to expect an employee to remain or leave an organization.
