Job markets go up and down but one thing remains clear: Companies want and need to retain their best-performing employees. Unfortunately, most companies use the exit interview to collect reasons why their employees leave – an action that can be described by the old adage, “too little, too late.” A better strategy is to implement and leverage “stay interviews,” which help managers proactively take action ahead of the employee’s decision to leave.
A stay interview is a powerful retention tool that can give organizations a jumping-off point to build upon the positive aspects of the job. It helps to identify the key factors that engage and excite employees. As well, it also helps to pinpoint aspects that drive dissatisfaction and frustration for high-performing employees, so that those aspects can be minimized or eliminated.
If you’ve ever found yourself dumbfounded by high-performing/high-potential employees handing in letters of resignation seemingly “out of the blue,” then it’s time to get real.
Today’s high-performing employees want and need a job that resonates with their values, practical needs, opportunities to contribute, and desires for professional growth and development. If they feel disconnected from their employees, managers, and work, they start to look elsewhere to build their resumes. But it doesn’t have to be this way if you provide a way for them to communicate their impressions and insights to you.
