COURSE OBJECTIVES

DECIDING WHAT YOU NEED

  • Turnover becomes critical : The number of high-potential workers leaving is higher than average workers leaving. 

  • Employees feel undervalued:  When a majority of your employees feel that there is no room for advancement or that you choose too many outside hires, there is a succession-planning problem.

  • There are no replacements for key talent: Should a valued member of staff suddenly leave, there is no one able to take his or her place.
     

  • The time to fill metric is high or unknown: The time to fill metric is the average length of time that it takes to fill a position.
     

  • The retention risk analysis is high: A risk analysis uses different factors to determine the potential number of employees who will leave.
