The 'Missing Ingredient' in Employee Retention and Peak Performance

"The basic building block of good communications is the feeling that every human being is unique and of value."
— Unknown

It’s a fact: Communication and selling skills are essential in today’s competitive marketplace. It’s no longer enough to just be ‘technically’ good at your work anymore. Expertise in the technological systems in your business won’t necessarily solve a customer’s problem. Line staff, management and business leaders need the skills to effectively communicate with customers and fellow staff members.

HR and Training Managers face enormous challenges when they consider the increasing difficulty of finding and keeping skilled people, a more demanding highly skilled younger workforce, and a growing population of older workers heading toward retirement.

Soft skills are becoming the key ‘missing ingredient’ in keeping and ensuring employees perform at their peak. Interpersonal, phone, sales, and team building skills are a vital element of a high-retention culture.

Employers owe it to themselves and their business to stop and take time to plan and invest in their most valuable asset... their employees.
