Love 'Em or Lose 'Em: Getting Good People to Stay
Today's leaders need coaching that enables them to help their key employees thrive, constantly learn and give their "all" to the team and organization. Talent Focused Leaders know that if their organization is to be productive and competitive, they must not only "hang-on" to good people but also continually engage and develop them to meet constantly changing business needs.
The big question for most leaders is how to do this in a "no-time-to-do-it" environment. Love 'Em or Lose 'Em provides practical, low cost, or no cost ways to engage and retain the intellectual capital in which your organization has already invested.
Participants will leave with easy to implement ideas that can be used immediately.

Hello Stay Interviews, Goodbye Talent Loss: A Manager's Playbook
Managers should routinely ask their best employees this simple question: "What will keep you here?" Unfortunately, most managers don't ask until they conduct employee exit interviews. By then, the question comes too late. A Stay Interview is a one-on-one conversation with employees about what they care about most on the job, and how you can adjust or coordinate their circumstances to make them happier. Stay interviews can be used with talent at any level. When you deploy stay interviews correctly, they engage staff members and increase their productivity.
Participants will leave with a set of questions to use for their own Stay Interviews with key employees.

Career Conversations Organizations Need & Employees Want
Career development is ranked among the top global drivers for engagement and retention. Great leaders know that they can't take the development of talent for granted. Employees want their managers to understand their talents, challenge them, open channels for their development and link them to resources in the organization. They want someone to be attentive to their needs for growth. How leaders pay attention to and talk with the members of their teams is critical in the perception, feeling, and reality of whether the organization is concerned and interested in an individual's growth and career success. Employees too have a role to uncover their own needs, wants, and actions.
Managers will leave with a process, tips and tools, to coach employees in their development conversations.
Employees will leave with the beginning of a game plan for their own career.
