Today's manager is busy. With more pressure and more change in their daily routine than ever before, they must somehow find time to also engage and retain the vital talent on their current teams. Talent loss only creates more work. This session provides a solid, time-sensitive suggestion. Instead of waiting till the exit interview to learn why individuals are leaving, a recommendation is made to create a pattern of stay interviews instead. A prescription for stay interviews is presented as well as the research based impact of this conversation across cultures. Talent development professionals will learn the signs and situations that cause individuals to consider looking elsewhere for employment. They will also learn a specific approach to mining a conversation for no cost and low cost information that managers can apply to retain the critical talent on their teams.
 
Application on the Job:

• Distinguish the warning signs that suggest that an individual may be considering a change
• Learn the research that suggests that pay is not the key factor in retention
• Practice using several of the questions that comprise the stay interview
• Explore the multiple possible opportunities to fit the stay interview into daily work
