Once upon a
time, people would go right from
school into a job, and they'd
stay with the same organization until they got their gold watch
and a nice retirement pension.
Employees knew where they stood
in their organization and what
was expected to get ahead in
their careers.
The
employment picture of the past
has changed significantly. Today,
"Help Wanted" signs are
everywhere, from the local
hamburger stand to the largest,
most sophisticated organizations.
Managers and supervisors are
scrambling to find qualified
employees in an ever-smaller
labor pool, drained by low
unemployment rates and a greater
need for highly skilled workers.
If
competition for qualified
employees is getting tougher,
what alternatives does an
organization have when a job
opens up? They can spend more
money recruiting and hiring. They
can settle for workers with
inadequate skills. Or, they can
avoid turnover in the first place
by retaining the productive
workers they already have. Â
This isn't
as simple as it sounds. When
security and loyalty are no
longer an issue, organizations
have to be as innovative in their
workplace as they are with their
products and customers. Throwing
money at workers is not enough.
Even though individuals want jobs
that pay for their basic needs
and regard their talents, there
are other factors that have a
stronger influence on their
choice of employers. After all,
talented workers can pick and
choose. Many supervisors feel
that retaining workers can only
be done at an organizational
level. This simply isn't true.
Â
This film
shows that supervisors, managers
and team leaders play a crucial
role in this process. This film
demonstrates three of the most
important tactics a manager can
take to retain workers. Â
Viewers
will learn how to inspire a
climate of loyalty, keep
individuals challenged, motivate
and reward, discipline without
demoralizing and be flexible
without compromising
productivity.
