MAILING LISTS

I recently ran across a reference about "employee retention" that listed
"Being part of a team" as *one of the top 5 reasons employees list for
staying where they are.
*
Here is the excerpt I found:

In their bestselling book on employee retention, *Love ‘Em or Lose ‘Em*,
Beverly Kaye and Sharon Jordan-Evans ranked the *top reasons employees
remain where they are:*

1. Career growth, learning, and development

2. Exciting work and challenge

3. Meaningful work, making a difference and a contribution

4. Great people

*5. Being part of a team*

6. Good boss

7. Recognition for work well done

8. Fun on the job

9. Autonomy, sense of control over my work

10. Flexibility, for example, in work hours and dress code

11. Fair pay and benefits

12. Inspiring leadership

13. Pride in the organization, its mission, and quality of product

14. Great work environment

15. Location

16. Job security

17. Family-friendly employer

18. Cutting-edge technology


Another great reason for helping people learn (a) what being part of a team
means and (b) how to create effective teams.


My Best,    Dee
