Why do employees stay with your organisation?
Many organisations that we talk to face bigger challenges with retention than with recruitment. For organisations like them, the answer to the question above is one of the most valuable that they can find the answer to.
A retention interview is one of several structured discussions with an employee starting early on in their employment cycle. Cohesion conduct these interviews, generating data as to what is working well in their organisation, and what might not be working so well.
Cohesion conduct exit interviews with those employees who are leaving or have just left their employer. Using a specialist, third-party interviewer is the best way to ensure that interviewees are comfortable enough to be truly candid with their answers. Full and frank data will allow you to make a positive and lasting impact on your business.
