Shocking

Why top talent leaves is always surprising. Yet, signs were everywhere. What are you doing today, to ensure your best are there tomorrow?

Great talent is always is demand. An executive just like yourself is looking for your best talent, right now. Take time now to invest, if you don’t they will leave.

The Real Cost of Losing Top Talent

It’s more than the financial cost for talent replacement. This assumes it’s about HR onboarding, new equipment and badges and salaries for new resources. It’s rarely that simple. Often you’ll find top talent simply is not replaceable even with a similar salary.

It consumes your personal time as an executive to train and mentor the new talent. Why does this time not have a price tag? Answer: You can’t measure your time apart from family and friends to train the new leader?

This is the true cost of losing top talent, additional demands on your personal time. The fact the job might not be done as good, well that is the second cost.

Take Action

Ensure your professional and organizational success, think about tomorrow today! Who are you at risk of losing? Do they matter to your success? What can you do today?
