Companies that don’t effectively manage and upskill their workforce risk significant productivity losses and stagnated growth. And one of the most common reasons employees seek new roles is their perception of limited career growth at their current company. 

You’re probably familiar with the old adage: People don’t quit jobs; they quit managers. 

Well, that’s not just some random saying; it’s a fact. Study after study shows that the manager has the biggest impact on the retention of their staff. This begins with becoming a performance coach rather than a dictating manager. Think about it: Nobody wants to be managed. But almost everyone is open to being coached. 

The number-one reason employees aren’t as successful as they should be, is that managers are typically bad at defining “success” for their people. That’s like asking them to win a race… but not telling them where the finish line is. 

In this engaging session, Amazon bestselling author and award-winning speaker Mike Matalone will help you understand: 

• The manager’s impact on retention—and why your managers need to become performance coaches.
• Why detailed career paths are the keys to increased productivity and retention. 
• How to define success and conduct a skills-gap analysis that helps your employees hold themselves accountable.

In short, you’ll come away from this session with newfound tools and instantly-available insights that you can use to accelerate your ability to build high-performing teams that drive organizational success.
