    SHRMA Presents: Stay Interviews

    Presentation Overview:

    Stay interviews are conducted to help an organization’s manager understand why employees stay and what might cause them to leave. The comments can be used in recruiting activities, on employment pages of the organization’s website, and in building priorities for future initiatives. They are a meaningful way of learning about retention and creating engagement and can be used to identify issues that if unresolved could cause turnover.

    In an effective stay interview, managers or a member of the HR staff ask standard, structured questions in a casual and conversational manner. The goal of the interviewer is establishing trust for candor. We’ll discuss who might be best at conducting these conversations.

    Attendees will learn:

    • How to use stay interviews as a retention tool
    • The best time(s) to conduct these conversations
    • Ideas for opening and closing the interview
    • Questions to use during a stay conversation
    • How to use the data gathered
