Companies conducting surveys with exiting employees may want to rethink their strategy, according to Morehead Associates, an opinion survey firm. On March 1 at 1:00 p.m. EST, they will offer a webcast called, ìPreventing Employee Turnover: A New Direction in Understanding Why Employees Stay,î in which Morehead will demonstrate a new strategy organizations can use to enhance their retention strategies by shifting the focus from why employees leave to why employees stay.
David Rowlee, Ph.D., Vice President, Research and Development, will present research that shows a surprising number of exiting employees leave organizations with highly satisfactory views of the workplace and work experiences, and for reasons not in the organizationís immediate control. This finding helps explain why traditional exit surveys aimed at measuring employee dissatisfaction have not always been useful as a way to assess why employees are truly leaving.
ìOur new approach is a proactive method that leads to the prevention of employee turnover before it actually occurs,î said Rowlee. Having conducted extensive research across healthcare organizations, Rowlee will illuminate, using an analysis of The University of Chicago Hospitals, the three critical workplace factors that primarily insulate employees from leaving their organizations. The University of Chicago Hospitals are ranked among the leading healthcare providers in the nation.
Rowlee brings to the webcast a decade of experience in survey research, behavioral modeling, social network analysis, and statistics.
The webcast is intended to help attendees design a comprehensive, straightforward retention strategy. To sign up for the webcast, click here
