HERE TODAY, HERE TOMORROW
Transforming Your Workforce from High-Turnover to High-Retention
Here Today, Here Tomorrow shows people how to create work
environments that attract, retain, and motivate their workforce to
higher levels of performance. The book outlines the eight elements of a
high-retention workplace, provides a detailed, step-by-step retention
strategy, and shows you how to implement it.
It also offers dozens of case studies and hundreds of tips and ideas
from a wide range of industries and businesses. This information will
help you reduce turnover costs, improve retention, and increase job
satisfaction.
Two Important Themes Permeate this Book
First, retention matters. A continual effort to replace departing
workers—keeping the revolving door full, instead of stopping it
altogether—is bleeding businesses dry. It’s expensive to constantly
replace people. The cost of attracting, recruiting, hiring, training,
and getting new people up to speed is tremendously more costly and more
wasteful than most realize.
Second, productivity is directly tied to retention. Companies with high
turnover are at risk for low productivity. Studies from the Gallup
organization show employees who have an above-average attitude toward
their work will generate 38 percent higher customer satisfaction scores,
22 percent higher productivity, and 27 percent higher profits for their
companies.
In this book, you’ll read about companies with work environments that
attract and retain people—and where people are willing to give their
best. These environments aren’t expensive. In fact, they save money.
In most cases, they improve retention and productivity without lavish
salaries or bonuses. And they certainly lower the expense of continually
hiring and training new people.
You Will Receive Loads of Practical Advice and Tons of Retention Tips
and Ideas
Unlike many books that only offer theory and generalities, this book
provides practical advice and ideas from a wide range of businesses and
industries. The author is a management consultant and works with
hundreds of organizations. Here Today has captured this
experience and makes the application process simple for you.
If you are a manager, you will appreciate the many tips provided to you at
the end of each chapter. They will help you become a better manager.
