Next week I will be presenting a workshop called “Revitalize and Retain Staff: Strategies for Boosting Employee Resilience and Engagement” at the Vermont Chamber’s Solutions Summit. The workshop - a mere 45 minutes - will only give attendees a quick glimpse into what my family and I have worked on for more than 30 years when it comes to team-building and high performance organizations. With that in mind, and not wanting to leave anything on the table, I put together a 36-page e-book by the same title that I will share at the conference and with all of you today!
In today's fast-paced business world, keeping your staff and team motivated and engaged can seem like a never-ending challenge. Employee burnout is on the rise, turnover costs are skyrocketing, and maintaining high morale feels like an uphill battle. Check out some of these statistics:
In 2023, global employee engagement dropped to 21%, signaling a major challenge for organizations striving to keep their workforce motivated and productive.
The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) reported in 2024 that replacing an employee can cost between 6 to 9 months of their salary, making turnover a substantial financial burden.
A 2024 FlexJobs survey showed that 70% of employees would consider leaving their current job for more flexible work options, emphasizing the importance of flexibility in employee retention.
Organizations investing in employee well-being programs saw a 30% improvement in retention rates in 2024, highlighting the critical link between well-being initiatives and staff retention.
According to LinkedIn’s 2023 Workplace Learning Report, 94% of employees would stay longer at a company that invests in their learning and development, underscoring the importance of growth opportunities for retention.
These data points are stark, however, I think there are some simple, science-based, tried-and-true tools every organization and leader can use to actively revitalize and retain their staff.
