Forget Retention
Focus on Culture
Chris Russo
iuvo Technologies
Who is this … person?
Who is this man of mystery?Culture instead of retention?
Let’s talk about change.
Could it be better?
Resist the urge to fight.
Evaluate and consider.
It’s actually not about them.
Accept people’s baggage.
Know thyculture, know thyself.
Focus change on you.
Trust.
Communicate excessively.
Challenge yourself to share.
Treat failures as opportunity.
Too much salt
makes
a nasty cake.
Treat hiring as strategic.
Hire based upon your culture.
Manage “misfits” out.
It takes more than a pack of
pirates to find the treasure.
Provide clear expectations.
Measure success.
Expose as much as you can.
Newspaper delivery doesn’t
work if you have to be on the
back of every bicycle.
Err on the side of delegation.
Results over attendance.
Accept 80%... this time.
Prioritize availability.
Maintain “office hours”.
Check in at least weekly.
Maintain a running agenda.
Mmmm. Pie.
Actively celebrate success.
Weight it for significance.
From whence it came?
Make other people
want your people.
Ask what they want to be.
Find opportunities to grow.
Their success… your success.
As it turns out…
…she’s not that unusual.
E. Nigma?
