The Cost & Connection Between Turnover & Hiring with Bruce Tracey PhD | 008
The cost of turnover is high. The rate of turnover is even higher. If you ever put a calculator to work to see what just a single termination or resignation actually costs then you know why each decision must not be taken lightly. There is a solid connection between the rate of turnover and what is used to determine why a person is hired.
To say that, Bruce Tracey PhD has made a major positive impact on the hospitality industry would be an understatement. In this episode we start with the hard cold numbers of turnover from a study he coauthored titled 'The Costs of Employee Turnover: When the Devil Is in the Details'. Then, we get into what matters the most in hiring. We reference this study, "What Matters Most? The Perceived Importance of Ability and Personality for Hiring Decisions", which he also was a coauthor. We even get into something that is emerging in selecting new team members. It;s called 'Hospitality Factor'
