While much of the future is unknown, we can help the faculty and staff that we supervise to develop the knowledge and skills they will need when the pandemic places fewer limitations on our lives.
This month we talked with supervisor Minerva Munoz from TRIO Student Support Services Program and Dawn York-Bentley from Morrill Hall Shared Services Human Resources about their challenges and successes in keeping teams engaged over the last few months.
Stay interviews are an effective and proactive tool to retain your high-performing employees and keep them engaged.
A stay interview is not an add-on to a performance review. It is a separate conversation to identify specific improvements that would raise their engagement.
A stay interview can inform you about why your high-performing employees stay in their role, and, should they plan to leave, how you may be able to keep them.
Over the past few years, we've invited you to participate in the Employee Engagement Survey in October and we've had strong participation. The survey is now conducted biennially so that leaders, faculty, and staff have more time to use past survey data to take action.
