You work for a mid-size organization, however, the workgroup that you are in typically has about 20 employees. Your supervisor suspects that your team has a morale problem. The turnover in the past six months in your workgroup has been over 50%. The Executive Director of the organization has put you in charge of finding a solution. The department is comprised of approximately 20 employees that range in experience and job functions.
Look at the information (facts) that you have right now. How would you determine if morale is the problem or if the employees’ reasons for leaving are for other reasons?
What kind of questions would you want to have answered about the employees that left (people analytics), about any major changes internally or externally to the organization? How would you go about getting this information?
Think of both qualitative and quantitative tools and methods for your approach and give at least three examples of how you would go about collecting information (metrics) to determine why people are leaving. What recommendations would you give to the Executive Director for how to proceed.
