Have you ever wondered why some bosses and organizations have people who are incredibly loyal to them and who will do anything for them while others have a revolving door of employee turnover? Those bosses and organizations people want to follow give their employees lots of C.R.A.P.! (Caring, Respect, Appreciation and Praise). Jeff provides a “headhunter’s” insight into why some employees are loyal and others work only to get a paycheck. Through real-life stories and interactive participation, Jeff has created a program which helps participants understand how to demonstrate Caring, Respect, Appreciation, and Praise, so that they can systematically build employee loyalty in their organization.

Learn how our C.R.A.P. Formula has helped organizations reduce turnover by 40-80% and turn your leaders into employee retention magnets!

Jeff applies lessons learned in life to employee retention.

Being Approachable and Accessible to your people is huge when it comes to creating loyalty and retaining your people.

"Orientation?" "Onboarding?" It's time to rethink the one-size-fits-all approach of bringing new employees into an organization. Treating very different people the same, and throwing them into the fire after a typically brief introduction, are recipes for employee dissatisfaction and turnover. Jeff Kortes, employee retention speaker, trainer and consultant, explains how "assimilation" is a much better approach, and why months - not days - should be allocated to bring new employees up to speed.

Your employees are people, with families, hopes and aspirations. How well do you know them? In short: Are you treating them like real people? Be visible, communicate openly, and behold the employee trust and loyalty you'll engender. Great employees don't quit companies to which they are loyal. Great employees DO quit faceless, nameless organizations that treat them like cogs in a machine. Jeff Kortes, employee retention speaker, trainer and consultant, explains how being human to employees can drive retention like never before.

A surprisingly high percentage of employees have personal issues - marital discord, financial problems, substance abuse, even coping with aging parents - that distract from their work. When an employee opens up about their personal challenges, you need to support them and search for resources to help. Jeff Kortes, employee retention speaker, trainer and consultant, explains that if you're there for your workers ... they'll be loyal to you.

If your organization uses psychometric testing, chances are you've seen test results for your employees. How about sharing yours with them? Doing so demonstrates a willingness to be open, build trust, and let them in on how your mind works. When everyone understands the other's personality, disagreements are reduced ... along with the possibility that upset workers will search for greener pastures. If you're willing to take this step, it can be a powerful tool in employee retention.

The Golden Rule is worth its weight in gold to build a workplace culture of trust ... and create deep employee loyalty that minimizes turnover. Treat people well. Respect them. Communicate constantly. In other words, treat employees how you'd like your boss to treat you. Common sense, right? Except when day-to-day stresses interfere, and we say or do things that are fool's gold. Always be mindful of the Golden Rule, and you worry MUCH less about replacing employees.

Have you ever sat down with long-term employees and asked why they stay with your organization? Probably not. Instead, most companies wait until workers are leaving to ask "Why?" Asking this simple question in a proactive fashion offers a glimpse into how workers think ... and provides the basis to plan for how to keep your best talent. Proactive, instead of reactive? It's not a novel concept. Put it to good use, and be amazed at what you learn!

Fully one-half of successful hiring is about employees' personalities fitting with organizational culture, along with their skill sets. Psychometric testing is a valuable tool for assessing personality traits, and can avoid costly mistakes with bad hires ... not to mention uncomfortable conversations when you have to let them go.
