About this episode

Have you ever had a talented employee leave, and only then realized how much they mattered?

It’s more than just a replacement cost—losing top talent hits your team’s morale, productivity, and institutional knowledge.

And here’s the kicker:

many leaders don’t see it coming until it’s too late.

In today’s episode, we’ll explore why organizations lose their best employees and, more importantly, what you can do to stop it. By the end, you’ll learn how to:

  1. Retain your top performers with more than just a paycheck.
  2. Build a culture that inspires loyalty.
  3. Foster growth, trust, and connection across your team.
