Real Lesson From Despair.com: Disservice

systematicHR Avatar

It takes months to find a customer, but only seconds to lose one… the good news is that we should run out of them in no time. ((Despair.com))

This is as true in HR as any other part of our organizations. Our recruiting processes often takes weeks if not months to find a good employee. But those we fail to engage often go looking for a new job sooner than later. Those who we have engaged but fail to keep in that state also go looking for a new job. Often, a single slip-up will keep tham at arms length. We talk an awful lot about service delivery, engagement, change management and user adoption here at systematicHR. And for good reason, it’s not just about productivity, growing talent and engagement, but also about the total state of your workforce and maintaining the best talent around. The small things force employees away, but it sure does take a lot of energy to keep them. In the long run, it’s worth it.
