Your work environment is key to retention. That, along with relationships to authority are key factors in who stays or leaves your organization.
“I’m Kevin Shrake and I’m the Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer of MDR. Employees are attracted to your organization because of the work environment that you create for them. It’s been shown over and over in studies that people leave organizations for a variety of reasons and sometimes it’s money and benefits but the majority of the time it’s because of their work environment and the relationship to their immediate supervisor. That’s the majority of the time. So if you put emphasis on that and you really believe it and you make people believe that you have their best interest at heart, they’re going to want to stay and they’re going to want their friends to come work with them.”
