Assignment Topic: Retention Strategies

Use the internet to research “Employee Retention Strategies” and compose a submission that describes three (3) strategies you came across that you think might be good ideas to supplement the basics most firms employ. In your description, identify why those three appeal to you, and if you think they would appeal to a worker whose life stage is different than yours. (For instance, on- site childcare could be great for a single parent of young children … but not so much for a sixty-two year old worker whose children (if any) are adults.)

As always, be sure to provide citations that would allow your instructor to follow up on any or all of the strategies.
