The Alliance’s Action Steps are designed to assist organizations with implementing practical strategies and policies related to diversity and flexibility. Members can access full versions of all of the Alliance’s Action Steps in the Member Resource Center.

Stay Interviews are a powerful tool in the modern corporate landscape, offering a proactive approach to employee retention and engagement. Unlike exit interviews, which gather insights when it’s too late to retain an employee, Stay Interviews allow organizations to address concerns, leverage strengths, and foster loyalty before valuable talent considers leaving.

The benefits of implementing a robust Stay Interview program include:

1. Improved Retention: By identifying and addressing potential issues early, organizations can significantly reduce turnover rates.

2. Enhanced Engagement: Stay Interviews demonstrate that the organization values its

employees’ opinions and experiences, leading to increased engagement and productivity.

3. Targeted Development: These interviews provide insights into employees’ career aspirations, allowing for more tailored professional development opportunities.

4. Cultural Insights: Regular Stay Interviews offer a pulse check on company culture, helping leadership understand and shape the employee experience.

5. Predictive Power: Stay Interviews can help identify trends and potential issues before they become widespread problems.

The R.E.T.A.I.N. framework outlined in this guide provides a structured approach to implementing and maintaining an effective Stay Interview program. By following these steps, organizations can harness the full power of Stay Interviews to create a more human centered workplace.
