Questions We Need To Be Asking?- Would we miss them if they were gone?
- Would we hire them again knowing what we know?
- If we would would we give them more training/support? Why cant we just do it now?
- Are the managers having 121’s with the staff?Are HR having catch up supervision meetings with the managers?
- Why did you leave is an ineffective question? Why did you start looking is better?
