Maintaining your competitive advantage has never been more important than in today’s economic reality. Many organizations are taking advantage of the downturn by seizing market share and recruiting to upgrade talent. Success-driven organizations are focused on keeping key talent and top performers engaged today, and retained through the downturn and beyond.

We are especially pleased to have Dr. Jack J. Phillips and Lisa Edwards as featured presenters for this event. Dr. Phillips is a world-renowned expert on accountability, measurement, and evaluation. He is joined by Lisa Edwards, HRSF Board member and well-known Seattle learning and development leader who specializes in talent engagement and retention. Jack and Lisa recently published a collaborative work, “Managing Talent Retention: An ROI Approach”.

This half-day workshop is designed to help you seize the opportunity in our current economic reality by equipping you with the skills you need to identify the most critically important talent groups, accurately pinpoint the cause of talent departure, develop the most cost-effective solution for key talent groups, and measure monetary business impact, including return-on-investment.

By attending the Managing Talent Retention workshop, you will learn how to:

Accurately develop the cost to the organization of losing key talent
Pinpoint causes of turnover
Select the best, most cost-effective solutions to address the identified causes of turnover
Track leading indicators and implement preventative measures to maintain desired turnover levels
Forecast a monetary value and ROI for the implemented solutions
Review a case study on ROI of talent retention

This hands-on workshop provides participants with the tools needed to create a strategic plan, with measurable results, to address the specific needs and issues of managing talent retention and positively impacting the bottom-line.

Participants will receive a participant guide and a signed copy of the book, “Managing Talent Retention: An ROI Approach” (Pfeiffer, 2009). Please note that parking fees are not included. 

This meeting is co-sponsored by the Washington State chapter of Financial Executives International.

5:00 PM – 6:30 PM: Continue the conversation with Jack, Lisa and fellow participants in a Networking Reception.
