Download or read book Managing Employee Retention written by Jack J. Phillips and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-02-18 with total page 376 pages. 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.

Download or read book Employee Retention in Change Management Processes Practical Experience written by Michael Kurwan and published by GRIN Verlag. 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.

This book was released on 2009-07-27 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: The main capital of knowledge companies is the knowledge of their employees. More and more staff working in knowledge companies do not work physically at the company s office. Very often, this staff stays at offices provided by the customers. In certain cases, the staff does not see their employers organisation for months and sometimes they do not even have contact with their employer s organisation or their real colleagues for months This is especially true for consultancy and insurance companies. The result is that these kind of knowledge workers tend to develop a bigger commitment and psychological bonding with the customer s organisation than with the employing company that pays their salary. The same process of commitment can be seen from the customers perspective in consultancy companies. Very often a customer buys a knowledge worker for a special task. Often the knowledge worker stays much longer than the original task lasts. After a certain time the knowledge worker is integrated in the customer s organisation and has taken responsibility for things other than the original task. He becomes part of the furniture . It is not unusual in such cases that the customer tries to entice away the knowledge worker. This happens regardless of contract penalties. For knowledge companies, as for companies in similar business environments it is therefore of vital importance to develop and implement a strategy of staff retention. The focus of this research is to examine the different tools used in strategies in staff retention in different companies and how successfully they are implemented in knowledge companies. Three different types of companies will be investigated as case studies. They are different in size and their main field of business activity. The case studies focuses on three different organisations, the ACT AG a middle-sized consulting company, which is specialised in IT consulting organisations in the financial and public sector, the Kreissparkasse Koeln (KSK) a local Bank with about 160 branches and the Deutsche Krankenversicherung (DKV) a international insurance company. The aims and objectives of this research will be investigated from both viewpoints, the management and the workforce. It will be of interest how the different tools used in staff retention strategies work and what their main drivers are. All three companies will be compared regarding these matters. From the feedback received, any [...]

This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: A, The University of Liverpool, language: English, abstract: This particular research has been conducted in order to compare the employee retention practices of Tesco and Sainsbury in United Kingdom. This particular research has been conducted through triangulation methodology. Qualitative and quantitative data tools have been employed for comparing the employee retention practices of both competitors. Primary data has been collected through a survey which is conducted through a close end questionnaire. A sample of 100 employees has been selected through convenience sampling technique. The survey generated a response rate of 93%. The findings of the research suggest that Tesco has been more effective in its employee retention practices as compared to Sainsbury. Tesco adopts long lasting and effective tools for employee retention whereas Sainsbury looks for short term gains. The research found that in Tesco, management role, high salaries, extra benefits, and good working environment has been created for influencing employees to stay with the organization for a long time. On the other hand, Sainsbury lacks some important practices such as management role, extra benefits, job authority, job empowerment, and communication across departments which make it ineffective in its employee retention practices. In order to retain key employees for a long time period, it is important for Sainsbury to provide extra benefits and management support to the employees. This research has been limited to the Tesco and Sainsbury in United Kingdom. Future researchers can expand the scope of this research by taking a large sample from different stores. They can generalize the results by taking large sample from different organizations.
