This is a YouTube video titled "How Do You Increase Employee Retention Rate?📈 | Matthew Ryder" containing a monologue by Matt Ryder recorded in February 2024. In this content, Matt Ryder discusses strategies for improving employee retention, emphasizing realistic expectations, hard work, and tailored rewards and recognition programs.
What can we do to increase employee retention? Having realistic expectations is key. If you bring someone in, especially a sales rep with an expectation of making a load of money, like they don't do that straight away. It's a crappy expectation. What I said to people is listen, you can make a good amount of money here, but you're going to have to work hard and it's not not super easy. Then I'm going to start you off in a more difficult way because I feel like that's a better way for you to come in but you might not like it and that's fair enough. But if I start you any other way, I just don't think you're going to go that well. Then from there I think having a rewards and recognition program is something that' important and ask them what they want. Some people want recognition, some want money, some want status, some want time with you.
