Performance Management Training for Employee Satisfaction

Employees leave when they don’t like their management. As reported by The New York Times, this is true even if they like what they do, are well paid, are offered recognition, and are given opportunities for professional development. And sometimes leaving is the best part, since unhappy employees don’t deliver their best work or the best customer service.

Turnover and new-hire costs are a resource drain for any company. On average, 46{db95e0fd77ae6d141d4535e2bf7b464d98e4151322120f553d7786be9a7303be} of new hires wash out in their first 18 months, according to Leadership IQ. The Wall Street Journal reports the total cost of employee turnover ranges from 50 to 60{db95e0fd77ae6d141d4535e2bf7b464d98e4151322120f553d7786be9a7303be} to 100 to 150{db95e0fd77ae6d141d4535e2bf7b464d98e4151322120f553d7786be9a7303be} of the employee’s annual compensation.

Imagine the savings if your company retained just one or two additional employees each year. Take a mid-level manager that earns $35,000. If you had to replace this manager, at minimum, it would cost you $17,500. How many managers does your company lose per year? If it’s two, that’s $35,000; five managers, and that’s $87,500; 10 managers, and that’s $170,500.

Performance management training is the key to employee satisfaction and loyalty. A Hackett Benchmarking and Research report shows that companies that spend $218 per employee on training have a 16{db95e0fd77ae6d141d4535e2bf7b464d98e4151322120f553d7786be9a7303be} voluntary turnover, while companies that spend over $273 per employee on performance management training have turnovers of only 7{db95e0fd77ae6d141d4535e2bf7b464d98e4151322120f553d7786be9a7303be}.
