The Secret of Attracting & Retaining Key Employees on a Tight Budget How can organizations draw and keep essential personnel when they can no longer afford to offer inflated salaries or fancy perks? The answer may surprise you. It surprises most managers. For example, what do you think employees want from their jobs? Good wages? Job security? That's what managers have though… for at least the past 60 years. But it's not what employees have continued to say! As shown in the following table, what employees really want are appreciation and involvement. What Do Employees Want From Their Jobs?
Sources: Foreman Facts, Labor Relations Institute of NY (1946); Lawrence Lindahl, Personnel Magazine (1949)
Note the glaring discrepancy between manager opinion and employee fact. Are we saying – or are employees saying – that competitive wages are unimportant? Of course not. Money usually is necessary, but not sufficient condition to attract, retain and motivate good employees. [By the way, money isn't even always necessary – notice how energized and enthusiastic unpaid volunteers often are.]
Test this out yourself: Remember a time when you felt energized, fulfilled, and excited about your job or a project; when you couldn't wait to get out of bed and get to work! [Or, if unfortunately, nothing comes to mind – remember a time when you felt frustrated, bored or dispirited about your job or a project; when you had to force yourself out of bed to go to work!] What were you doing? What was special (or not special) about it? Was it the pay? The fringe benefits? Maybe... for the first few days. Or... was it the stimulating work, the stretching of your abilities, being an important part of a grand venture, the rapport with coworkers, the recognition from superiors? If you find that it's the former, please write to us at Exceptions@GHR-Training.com. [That mailbox continues to remain empty.] Otherwise ... the only thing we would add to your insight is the assurance that it is not unique – to you, your profession, job level, or socio-economic group. In fact, it is the quality of the work itself – and of our relationships with others at work – that draws us to the best organizations and keeps us there, performing at peak effectiveness. Now – lest there is any doubt – this discrepancy between manager opinion and employee fact is good news – for two reasons:
By now, that "secret" we promised – to attract and retain talented employees should be obvious:

Attracting,
Retaining & Motivating Employees: There is a dangerous crisis in America today. It has nothing to do with terrorism or the natural disasters. Rather, we're referring to the diminishing ability of organizations – in every sector of our society to attract & retain talented employees – i.e., to survive. At a time of intense global competition, most corporations, government agencies and non-profit associations alike have exhausted whatever efficiency and cost-cutting improvements there were to be extracted from reengineering and downsizing. And, many have found that they have cut, not only the fat, but also much of their muscle (or even lifeblood), that is – their best employees. However, as they now look to replenish, preserve and nourish this blood and muscle, they are faced with a Generation X/Y workforce 40% smaller (and much more demanding) than the Baby Boomers – and the lowest unemployment rate in 30 years! Also, employee loyalty is down, way down. According to a 2005 study conducted by the Society of Human Resource Management, 79% of employees are job searching actively or passively. And ... "as the economy and job market continue to improve, these numbers are expected to increase." In fact, the most frequently asked question put to SHRM is: "How can we keep talent from jumping to our competitors?" Fortunately, every crisis contains in it – not only danger – but also opportunity. This article shares with you the secret to transforming this dangerous crisis into an opportunity for your organization to flourish! Based on our research and work with employers across the country, we have identified the distinguishing traits of organizations that attract, retain and motivate the best employees. In a nutshell:
Recent landmark studies confirm what theoreticians and management gurus such as Abraham Maslow, Frederick Hertzberg and Peter Drucker – have maintained for decades
Recently, the Families
and Work Institute published the National Study of the Changing
Workforce – the most comprehensive research ever conducted
in this area. They found that, while Earnings & Benefits
have on only a 2% impact on job satisfaction, Job Quality
and Workplace Support have a combined 70% impact. That's
a 35 times greater bang for the buck! (Though, in the case of
Job Quality and Workplace Support, it is an intangible,
symbolic "buck", rather than a monetary expense.) Factors Impacting Job Satisfaction
And, the findings were similar for factors impacting: Employee Loyalty, Retention and Performance. For Performance, however, Job Demands (that is stress factors such as overtime and deadlines) have a negative impact – comparable to the positive impact of either Job Quality or Workplace Support. But, let's suppose that employee retention is not a problem for your organization and you're not convinced that employee satisfaction has much impact on the bottom line. Then consider this: A recent survey conducted by the Gallup organization researched the Impact of Employee Attitudes on Business Outcomes. They found that organizations where employees have above average attitudes toward their work (that is, high employee satisfaction), have:
Satisfying employees, by ensuring that they have meaningful work and are treated well, is not only a nice thing to do; it makes good business sense. So, if you want to transform the danger into an opportunity for your organization to flourish and make money – pay your employees with more than just money!
