    How Stay Interviews Help With company Retention

    How Stay Interviews Help With company Retention

    A stay interview is when an employer sits down with an employee to gather information about what the employee values about their job and discover what the worker believes can be improved. A stay interview is similar to an exit interview, but it’s done with active employees rather than those heading out the door.
    Stay interviews are an opportunity to uncover what motivates that employee and build trust with them as a manager.
    Our guest Tara Reynolds shares her experience and gives tips on what questions you might ask and who does the interviews.
    Here are some key takeaways from this episode:
    6:40 What is a Stay Interview
    8:06 Comparing a yearly review with s stay interview
    8:59 What holds companies back from having stay interviews

I just listened to podcast 42 on making videos. Great tips!
I believe videos are a must for any business.
