This media coverage exposes the newly launched Retention Institute to millions of business professionals across the globe at a time when retention is being called one of the biggest concerns for the executive suite - as global economies recover and top talent gets tempted to new opportunity.
With the Retention Institute, CEOs and HR executives concerned with the high costs of turnover in their companies now have a new set of tools at their disposal to slash those costs significantly - and to introduce a new level of professionalism to their organizations. The Retention Institute offers key HR executives and other professionals an online certification program designed to dramatically reduce turnover, improve productivity, and enhance competitiveness resulting in substantial ROI.
Based on the Rethinking Retention Model developed by Finnegan, together with the global capabilities of the Tarsus Group plc, the tools and their processes bring program participants together with executive managers. The Model drives organizations to address employee retention with the same types of processes they apply to sales, service, quality, and safety. Importantly, the tools require candidates for certification to work under the guidance of an executive sponsor and to interact directly with executive managers so these executives understand the program's benefit and support it throughout the organization.
A key feature of this program: Certification candidates learn the most effective employee retention techniques and apply them directly to their organization in real time. These candidates then become employee retention champions to continue improving employee retention and reduce employee turnover costs.
Employee retention legend Leigh Branham, author of "The 7 Hidden Reasons Employees Leave," praised the program saying, "The Retention Institute certification program can deliver immediate ROI to an organization. It provides an opportunity to measurably increase the rate of employee retention, reduce turnover-related costs, and protect the knowledge critical to business growth. This program is not just about reading and test-taking. It's about following a systematic process based an experienced-based understanding of turnover dynamics, and proven steps for preventing and correcting turnover."
Throughout the program, the certification candidate and executive sponsor track retention results to ensure they are achieving their goal. At the program's conclusion, the executive sponsor signs off that the candidate has completed the assigned tasks and fulfilled all requirements for the Certified Employee Retention Professional (CERP) designation.
