I used three “Best Reasons” to encourage an employee to stay with my team.
I/We want you to remain with the company –
- You said that one of your concerns is that your “boss” and mentor is retiring in 1 year – he is not retiring for 5 years.
- You said your income is at the top of the earning scale for a tool maker and we can offer you greater opportunity and income as a successor to your “boss.”
- In addition to income, we are able to offer you further leadership, design and other training that you may require to be the successor.
He stayed – I intend to use your process frequently.
