Employee Retention

Here Today, Here Tomorrow

Transforming Your Workforce from High-Turnover to High-Retention

 

 

Here Today, Here Tomorrow shows people how to create work environments that attract, retain, and motivate their workforce to higher levels of performance. The book outlines the eight elements of a high-retention workplace, provides a detailed, step-by-step retention strategy, and shows you how to implement it.

 

It also offers dozens of case studies and hundreds of tips and ideas from a wide range of industries and businesses. This information will help you reduce turnover costs, improve retention, and increase job satisfaction.


Two Important Themes Permeate this Book


First, retention matters. A continual effort to replace departing workers—keeping the revolving door full, instead of stopping it altogether—is bleeding businesses dry. It’s expensive to constantly replace people. The cost of attracting, recruiting, hiring, training, and getting new people up to speed is tremendously more costly and more wasteful than most realize.


Second, productivity is directly tied to retention. Companies with high turnover are at risk for low productivity. Studies from the Gallup organization show employees who have an above-average attitude toward their work will generate 38 percent higher customer satisfaction scores, 22 percent higher productivity, and 27 percent higher profits for their companies.


In this book, you’ll read about companies with work environments that attract and retain people—and where people are willing to give their best. These environments aren’t expensive. In fact, they save money.  In most cases, they improve retention and productivity without lavish salaries or bonuses. And they certainly lower the expense of continually hiring and training new people.


You Will Receive Loads of Practical Advice and Tons of Retention Tips and Ideas


Unlike many books that only offer theory and generalities, this book provides practical advice and ideas from a wide range of businesses and industries. The author is a management consultant and works with hundreds of organizations. Here Today has captured this experience and makes the application process simple for you.


If you are a manager, you will appreciate the many tips provided to you at the end of each chapter. They will help you become a better manager.

 

What People Are Saying About Here Today, Here Tomorrow!

 

"Greg provides a comprehensive road map for not only attracting and keeping talented employees, but for motivating them to achieve a higher level of performance."

David Shadovitz
Editor-in-Chief

"Today’s work force brings many things to the table, creative thinking, new ideas, boundless energy and some issues that have not been dealt with in the past. Continually it is made apparent that employees are not willing to follow in the footsteps of prior generations. Here Today, Here Tomorrow is an outstanding tool for learning an employee retention approach that works across generations and ensures a successful future."

Donna J. Murphy

"Greg Smith has packed a ton of useful information into this little book.  He makes a convincing case for retaining those employees we work so hard to recruit.  No matter your organization, you can find dozens of useful ideas for treating people right and providing the benefits that matter to them.  If this book had been available years ago, many leaders could have avoided much trial and error."
