The Virtuous Cycle of Retention with Erica Keswin

Sep 26, 2023

Our latest episode features Erica Keswin, a workplace strategist and bestselling author, and a discussion revolving around the profound impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the world of work. Erica talks about her latest book, The Retention Revolution, and how leaders must rethink their battle stance in the War for Talent if they want to stay competitive. Ultimately, the key to retaining talent lies in offering growth opportunities, empathetic leadership, flexibility, and — surprisingly — maintaining an open door even when employees choose to move on.
