Retaining Talented Employees

When business is on a downswing and layoffs are rampant, it seems reasonable that employees would be reluctant to trade what they have for uncertainty. In addition, with the growing pool of talent in the labor market suitable replacements can be found easily when employees do leave. Under closer scrutiny, there is a strong case against such thinking. It is never simple or cheap to replace a top producer.

Competitors and headhunters are always stalking your top talent, regardless of economic condition. Most executive these days look outside their organizations to fill key positions. They do whatever it takes to lure attractive candidates, using signing bonuses, stock options and generous compensation packages. Your best defense is an ongoing retention program as your star performers will always be vital to your business, especially in tough economic times.

The number one reason people come to work is to make a contribution, make a difference. And, by developing the leaders and managers in your organization to focus on what is really important to each individual requires a new set of skills.

To help you develop and put into practice these new skills the Retaining Talented Employees Program has been designed. The training is delivered in two parts, a one day intensive workshop and six teleconference training sessions held over three months to reinforce the learning and practice these new skills over two months.

The Executive Leadership Program

For leaders, emotional intelligence is almost 90 percent of what sets the leaders apart from those who are not seen as leaders. Daniel Goleman documents, "it's the essential ingredient for reaching and staying at the top in any field. And, organizations that learn to operate in emotionally intelligent ways are the companies that will remain vital and dynamic in the competitive marketplace of today—and the future."

Emotional Intelligence is the capacity for recognizing our own feelings and those of others, for motivating ourselves, and for managing emotions well in ourselves as well as managing emotions well in others. Leadership competencies are based on emotional intelligence and are learned capabilities.

Studies show that people with a high "Accurate Self-Assessment" have smaller gaps between themselves and how others view them. Therefore, those who score low in "self-assessment" are less aware of their strengths and limits, and therefore will be less accurate at assessing themselves on emotional intelligence competencies. Studies indicate that those who are best at "accurate self assessment" tend to be the outstanding leaders or stellar performers.
