take to persuade you to stay? Better benefits? A
bigger paycheck? More flexibility?

those valuable workers by offering them what they
want most.

hiring managers and human resource professionals
and 3,991 workers nationwide to find what
employees value in the workplace, and what
ultimately entices them to stay with their employers.

List of characteristics that signal a
“superstar.”
• Self-starter – Regularly demonstrating initiative, self-starters
continually take on new challenges and responsibilities — pushing
themselves and those around them to step outside of their
written job descriptions and think outside the box. In addition,
they don’t shy away from making the tough call in order to
achieve what is right for the customer and their company.
• Demonstrates a high propensity for learning – High potential
employees are always improving and enhancing their craft. Not
only do they learn from their mistakes, they seek feedback from
others and continually embrace new ideas and creative ways of
thinking.
• Sets a strategic mindset – Star performers rarely focus the
majority of their attention on short-term strategies. Instead, they
keep an eye out for trends or voids in the marketplace and turn
them into opportunities for their company’s long-term success.

• Maintains a clear line of sight – Superstar employees have no
trouble rising above an avalanche of activities, meetings and
work emergencies to keep a clear focus and discipline on what
really matters.
• Well-liked and genuine – High potential employees are
energetic, genuine and well-liked individuals. They know how to
foster teamwork, inspire those around them and ensure that
other employees know that their contributions matter to the
company.
• An influential communicator – Perhaps the most important
characteristic of a leader is their ability to speak in a way that
inspires and captures the energy and imagination of others. A
star performer helps others see the positives that can be
achieved in the workplace and directs employees toward a
personal and professional path of success.

Retention tools
1. Motivation
What it is that motivates this group of employees? It can be different
for many; some it could be compensation where others it may be
learning opportunities, challenging work or the ability to advance
within the organization. If retaining these employees is important
to the organization than it is critical that you find out what
motivates them and build a plan accordingly.
2. Training and development
As mentioned previously, training and development budgets were
one of the first causalities during the economic downturn. Now
as the global economy turns around and aggressive growth
strategies are developed it is more important than ever to ensure
you have the right training and development programs in place to
retain & develop your already existing key talent.

3. Opportunities: Unfortunately you may have lost some of your
talent through natural attrition. Therefore, you need to
determine where those gaps are within your organization and
either attract externally or use this as the prime opportunity to
develop one of your identified high potential employees and
groom them accordingly. There is no better way to retain a key
employee than to provide them with a career development
opportunity, provided the right tools are put in place to help
make the employee successful.
4. Compensation : You need to review and ramp up your total
compensation programs. The market place will only become
more competitive and many of your key talent may be feeling a
little disillusioned with the lack of merit increases, possible cut
backs in base salaries and/or lack of bonuses over the last
couple of years, therefore may be shopping the market for some
new opportunities.

Again, this is a critical time to ensure you have benchmarked
your total compensation plans ensuring you are truly
competitive
5. Engagement
• Lastly, are you involving your key talent in the strategy and
development initiatives of the company? Are you making
them feel like they are part of the big picture and a key
contributor? If not, involve them with your strategy sessions
or key projects, stretch them, hold them accountable –
CHALLENGE THEM! Many times this is all they are looking for,
an opportunity to learn and become more valuable to the
organization. It is a WIN-WIN formula.
