The Perfect Storm:
The Future of Retention and
Engagement
Jay J. Jamrog, Executive
Director, Human Resource Institute at the
University of Tampa, St. Petersburg, Florida
With quit rates the lowest they've been in decades, HR
professionals might gain a false sense of confidence that retention programs
are right on target. Experts warn, however, that today’s employee "loyalty"
may be driven more by the economy than anything else. As the economic
picture brightens, they say, watch for a spike in turnover. Indeed, there
appears to be storm clouds building on the horizon. The combination of
rising job dissatisfaction, an improving economy, and demographic trends
that predict labor shortages, skill deficits and fewer knowledge workers has
all the elements for a perfect storm where retention and engagement issues
will be in the eye. And, this storm could last for decades. Pay, benefits
and other company programs can help attract talented employees, but by
themselves will not work to retain and engage key talent. This seminar will
explore the key trends, and help build an understanding the different
values, attitudes and needs of four generations that will be in the
workforce over the next decade. |
