principles of recruitment and retention

Principles of Recruitment and Retention Hard to recruit anyone, let alone someone good? Concerned about how to keep your good people? Ever recruited or promoted the wrong person? Someone left after only a few months?

All these are typical scenarios faced by today's managers who, on the whole, receive little or no training in how best to recruit and retain a team. It is also worth acknowledging that if a team member doesn't work out - under performing or eventually having to leave - who is the person who gets blamed? The employee! Rarely does a manager admit to him or herself, or indeed to others, "Maybe it was me?" as the primary reason that the round peg didn't fit into the square hole.

We can help! Save time, save money and improve the quality of people working for your company. Improve your chances of getting the right person in the right job, both now and in the future.

The return on your investment per manager should far exceed the time and cost of that manager recruiting the wrong person, promoting the wrong person or losing a key member of your team.

Structure:

We provide a 3-stage approach, guaranteed to improve what your managers are currently doing:

Stage 1 - Attracting Good People

Stage 2 - Recruiting Good People

Stage 3 - Retaining Good People

These can be delivered either as a 1 day programme or alternatively as two separate half days, held on your site at a mutually convenient time.

Course Content:

Attracting Good People:
What sort of company will they see? What sort of manager are they going to be required to work with? What is the job I want them to do? What about the future prospects? Where did our good people come from?	What were our past mistakes? How can we permanently recruit? How can we be more proactive? How can we get a better response?

Recruiting Good People:
How should I set up an interview? How can I get to know the real person? How do I ensure a happy candidate? What questions should I ask? Are our expectations clear?	What tools can help us decide? What process is best to use? Will the person like the work? Will they fit in? Is the person what they say they are?

Retaining Good People:
What is the quickest way to lose a good person? How can I help them feel important and wanted? How can I help in his/her life goals? How can I best motivate and manage this person?	How do I get people to grow and change with the company? How do I decide their training needs? How do I coach someone?
