Unemployment is at record lows, especially in Nashville, and the nation's quit rate is at an all-time high. The economy has become a job seekers market, and as a result companies are fighting to retain their own employees. Story-telling within an organization helps companies retain their best people by generating employee engagement. Talking about company growth, how the company came to be, highlighting the career-paths of high-growth employees and those who have made lateral moves, are all things that help to engage employees in their future at the company. Talking about company culture and sharing personal stories can help employees build camaraderie with each other, also driving engagement.
Learn how you can use storytelling to drive engagement thus retaining your talent in today's tight labor market, including how to:
- Use story-telling to empower next-level leadership in an organization
- Implement effective story-telling strategies to solicit employee buy-in and boost retention
- Highlight career-paths, growth and lateral moves by others in an organization to help engage staff at all levels
