How You Will Benefit
As dynamics in the work world continue to change, it is an increasing reality that employees no longer stay with the same organization for decades, but move from company to company chasing better opportunities and increased job satisfaction. Therefore, it is important for companies to be aware of the needs of their top-performing individuals and continue to challenge them. It is also important to establish a succession plan to replace employees if they decide to leave, or need to be dismissed.
According to a Career Builder study which surveyed over 2,600 hiring managers, 32 percent said top performers had left the organization within the year. Another 39 percent expressed concern that they would lose more top performers the next year. And perhaps rightly so. The same survey asked employees when they are looking to leave for a better opportunity, and 1 in 4 responded they would leave within the next two years.
This course will give you the tools to regain positive momentum after an important employee leaves, and teach you how to create a pipeline of new talent and potential leadership. As a result, you will be able to guide development activities of key employees, bring selection systems, reward systems, and management development into alignment with the process of leadership renewal, and avoid major transition setbacks.
