This book was released on 2021-07-26 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Operations Research, grade: 1.0, Jacobs University Bremen gGmbH, language: English, abstract: Employees are a company's greatest asset and competitive advantage. However, the consulting industry, represented by its flagship companies PWC, EY, KPMG and Deloitte, is facing a major turnover problem during recent years with annual rates between 15 and 20 per cent. This paper investigates two of the major causes for this development; the ‘Meatgrinder Problem’ and the ‘Kickstart Problem’, which form a vicious cycle. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate whether the industries’ current employee retention mechanisms are sufficient to break the cycle of the two interacting causes for turnover. Summing up the main components associated with the cost of turnover, the Saratoga Institute estimates the average cost of turnover to one time the annual salary of a worker. However, not all kinds of turnover are necessarily detrimental. According to Abelson & Baysinger (1984), some degree of turnover can have positive consequences for organizations like better person-job matches and staffing flexibility. On the other hand, dysfunctional turnover is the voluntary separation of employees whom the organization prefers to retain since these employees have made positive contributions to the organization and, by leaving, detract from overall effectiveness.

Download or read book Global Trends in Human Resource Management written by Edward E. Lawler III and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1995, USC's Center for Effective Organizations (CEO) has conducted the definitive longitudinal study of the human resource management function in organizations. By analyzing new data every three years since then, the Center has been able to consistently chart changes in how HR is organized and managed, while at the same time providing guidance on how professionals in the field can drive firm performance. Global Trends in Human Resource Management, the seventh report from CEO, provides the newest findings about what makes HR successful and how it can add value to organizations today. Edward E. Lawler III and John W. Boudreau conclude that HR is most powerful when it plays a strategic role, makes use of information technology, has tangible metrics and analytics, and integrates talent and business strategies. To adapt to the demands of a changing global marketplace, HR is increasingly required to span the boundaries between its function, the organization as a whole, and the dynamic environment within which it operates. This report tracks changes in a global sample of firms that shows how HR differs across Europe, the U.S., and Asia, providing an international benchmark against which to measure a company's practice and shows how HR can adapt in a rapidly changing landscape.
