Home The ability to attract and retain the very best people can be today’s most enduring source of competitive advantage.
To do that means an organisation should focus on looking good as a prospective employer; be good and interviewing and deciding who to hire; and remain an employer who delivers to employee expectations.
Some little known facts:
- Between 60 and 70 percent of all external hires within larger organisations are fulfilled by direct applicants.
- Six months after their start date one in three hires have not met the expectations of the employer.
- A hired Executive will leave a company within as little as eighteen months of their start date.
At Anderson Dubock, we believe in using our interview expertise to work with the recruitment decision makers in the internal interview process to decrease the number of failed hires and to improve retention statistics.
We work with organisations to implement retention and engagement programs in order to maximise the productivity and commitment of key employees.
The key areas that we work on include:
- Training and Development
- Setting of Expectations
- Management Expertise
- Reward Management
- Succession Planning
- Career Development
Through addressing these with issues, we ensure that the company is an attractive employer in the market, and will thus decrease the number of ‘bad hires’ and reduce unnecessary over-spending on recruitment campaigns.
It also enables management teams to focus and deliver to the expectations of their teams as well as the other way round.
If organisations can overcome the constant difficulties of retention, they will indeed find that they have the most engaged, motivated and productive workforce available to them.
