WINNING THE MODERN WAR FOR TALENT (ebook)

If you put stock in statistics, our nation is not doing a very good job when it comes to engaging employees. The U.S. quit rate (the rate at which employees voluntarily leave their jobs) is at its highest rate in 15 years. The job market is strong; in fact, the unemployment rate is at its lowest level in 50 years. People have options and aren’t afraid to jump ship.

In today’s economy, candidates, employees and temporary associates are in the driver’s seat. If they’re not engaged and happy, they’re at risk of leaving you. Losing your best people means losing reliable winners, hard workers, effective problem-solvers…and money right off your bottom line. Gallup estimates that disengaged employees cost U.S. companies up to $550 billion annually.
