Two women are sitting at a wooden table engaged in a conversation in a well-lit room with large windows. One woman, with blonde hair, is holding a pen and leaning forward, while the other woman, with brown hair, is smiling and looking at her. There are laptops, a container with pencils, and some notebooks on the table.

Retention Starts with a Conversation - Before It's Too Late

You Can’t Afford to Lose Key Talent

You’ve invested time, training, and trust in your team. But in today’s market, good people are in high demand—and losing just one high performer can create a ripple effect across your business. The problem? Most organisations don’t know why people stay… until they leave.

The Career Monitor Program

A strategic retention interview process that turns insights into action. Career Monitor goes beyond generic engagement surveys. It’s a structured, research-backed interview process that shows you why your people stay, what’s holding them back, and how to keep them motivated. It’s not just about preventing turnover—it’s about building a career conversation that benefits both the business and the employee.
