Building a thriving business is more than having a great product or unique service. The great differentiator in today’s world is your people. So finding talented people is important but keeping talented people is crucial. Talented people will always have opportunities- so how do you get them to stay?
Talented employees stay because they are:
1. Paid Well
2. Appreciated
3. Listened to
4. Promoted
5. Involved in decision making
6. Mentored
7. Challenged
If you look at that list – the takeaway to me is that your leadership approach will ultimately determine whether your talented people stay or leave. Remember – Partnership is The New Leadership
