About this book

How 'sticky' is your organization?

It's not enough to get good people through the door: the crucial question is how long they'll stay. When you lose hard-to-replace colleagues to competitors, self-employment, retirement or 'a better life', your business can quickly come unstuck.

As a leader, it's your job to retain and motivate the people with the skills, expertise and commitment your business needs to win. So how do you create a 'sticky' organization that makes your most valued employees want to stay?

You give them freedom.

Helen Beedham unpacks this paradox in this insightful guide for CEOs, COOs, CPOs and any leader who wants to fuel growth and reduce risk and costs by retaining talented people. She shows how businesses that enjoy stellar rates of retention have freedom in their DNA and how you can develop this low-risk, win-win approach too.

Discover:

  • The four freedoms that your organization should be offering.
  • The anti-freedom forces at work that weaken your glue.
  • How to measure your performance on the Freedom Index.
