This Is How To Keep Most Ambitious Employees From Leaving
2. CONDUCT A STAY INTERVIEW
Many companies perform exit interviews as employees leave the organization in order to learn where the company could improve. In addition to regular check-ins, keep your top talent by conducting “stay interviews”.
With stay interviews, managers have periodic discussions with their employees to determine how they are feeling about the organization, asking questions such as, ‘What motivates you to stay here?’ ‘What might cause you to leave?’ ‘Do you feel that you are challenged?’ ‘What changes would you make to your job if you could?’. The answers can be enlightening and can provide managers with frank feedback that might enable them to retain someone who might otherwise leave.
