1 Understand the causes

The first step to deal with turnover and retention challenges is to understand why your employees are leaving or staying. You can use various methods to gather feedback, such as surveys, exit interviews, focus groups, or performance reviews. You can also analyze data on turnover rates, retention rates, absenteeism, productivity, and customer feedback. Look for patterns, trends, and root causes that affect your employees' satisfaction, engagement, and performance. For example, are they leaving because of low pay, poor management, lack of recognition, or limited career opportunities?

More than exit interviews, conduct stay interviews. Find out why your employees are staying and what would it take for them to leave for another organization. Also, if you want to understand their challenges, ask them. Surveys are a great way to pull together a lot of answers, but sometimes going smaller and asking people 1-on-1 will show that you care more than just sending a link.

2 Improve your hiring process

The next step is to improve your hiring process to attract and select the right candidates for your organization. You can use various strategies to enhance your employer brand, such as showcasing your culture, values, benefits, and success stories on your website, social media, or job boards. You can also use effective screening tools, such as assessments, interviews, or references, to evaluate the candidates' skills, fit, and potential. You can also involve your current employees in the hiring process, such as asking them to refer candidates, participate in interviews, or mentor new hires.

The most important thing you can do in your hiring process is find a way to ensure your employees are a strong culture fit. That isn't to downplay the importance of differing voices, but having people aligned and supporting the same mission will help your retention rates more than almost anything.

3 Provide training and development

Another step is to provide training and development opportunities for your employees to help them grow and excel in their roles. You can use various methods to assess their needs, such as competency frameworks, career plans, or feedback sessions. You can also use various formats to deliver training, such as online courses, workshops, coaching, or mentoring. You can also encourage your employees to pursue their own learning goals, such as offering tuition reimbursement, flexible schedules, or learning resources. Training and development can help your employees improve their skills, knowledge, confidence, and performance.

4 Recognize and reward

One more step is to recognize and reward your employees for their achievements, contributions, and behaviors. You can use various ways to show your appreciation, such as saying thank you, giving feedback, celebrating milestones, or offering incentives. You can also use various forms of rewards, such as monetary, non-monetary, or intrinsic. For example, you can offer bonuses, raises, or commissions; you can offer gift cards, vouchers, or tickets; or you can offer autonomy, responsibility, or challenge. Recognition and reward can help your employees feel valued, motivated, and loyal.

5 Engage and communicate

The final step is to engage and communicate with your employees regularly and effectively. You can use various channels to communicate, such as meetings, emails, newsletters, or intranet. You can also use various techniques to engage, such as asking questions, listening actively, sharing information, or soliciting feedback. You can also use various topics to communicate, such as vision, goals, expectations, or progress. Engaging and communicating with your employees can help them feel connected, informed, and empowered.

Some other tips to consider. 1) Care about them as people. Don't be afraid to leverage empathy and kindness in the workplace. When people feel cared for they are more likely to stay. 2) Provide them with autonomy. People don't want to feel controlled or micromanaged. Give them the ability to select their schedules, place to work, and responsibilities to whatever extent you can. 3) Give them something to believe in. So many organizations lack a strong "why" to explain the "what" and "how" of what they do. People need to understand why what they do matters and how it ties into the company's larger vision.
