Paul Ridilla shows you why employees may leave your company.
As you struggling with our industry's ever-increasing skilled craft shortage, keep in mind that we're in a "seller's" market. As a result, your good employees now possess what other contractors are trying desperately to buy!
But you do have all kinds of feasible options to keep all your current employees on your payroll, as well as attract anyone else who becomes disenchanted enough to go shopping for a new company. You definitely want that mass migration coming to you rather than going away. Over these last few months, I've had the opportunity to talk privately with more than 50 of these "migrators" whom I've know personally. "Why did you leave?" and "What does your new employer do that is so much better?" are my leading Questions. As you might expect, their sincere answers to both questions are quite helpful for my clients and readers in their efforts to prime the pump, as well as not to lose that prime.
