Engagement and retention has increasingly become the top challenge among almost all large organizations. Studies consistently show that positive or negative engagement factors directly affect employee retention and have far-reaching impacts on productivity, morale, quality, customer satisfaction, and ultimately, profits and sustainability. Most organizations understand the importance of engaging and keeping key employees, and they make serious efforts in these areas. Often, however, these efforts fall short, and the most valuable employees walk (or run) out the door.

Imagine a jumbo jetliner, filled with passengers, crashing. Now imagine that horrific event happening every day. The loss of life would be too much to bear and people would quickly and decisively rally to put strict measures in place to prevent this from ever happening again. Every year, in hospitals around the world, 195,000 people die because of avoidable mistakes. The numbers are the same as the hypothetical daily airplane crash. Most of these deaths are avoidable, yet there still isn’t universal support for the practices and business tools that can turn these statistics around.

Life is made up of many events and dates along a timeline, and we celebrate the important ones. We start doing this right when life begins as we celebrate the birth of a child and then continue to celebrate that birth day throughout their life. It’s important we celebrate these life milestones and we continue to celebrate other events as the child grows. The first smile, word, crawl, tooth, and step along the way.
