"What if we train people and they leave? What if we don't, and they stay?"

This phrase is a terrible cliché, but it has some truth. So this week on the GoodPractice Podcast we're digging into it to explore the relationship between recruitment and development.

Ross G and Owen are joined by Radial Recruitment's Susan Lindsay and CIPD's David Hayden to discuss.
