Meet Joe
Every time a key employee walks out the door, it creates ripples throughout your entire organization.
You feel it in the countless hours spent covering for missing team members, the stress of managing poor performers, and the constant worry about who might leave next.
2024 Gallup annual Employee Engagement survey found 51% of employees are either actively searching or open to new opportunities – while only 18% of poor performers are looking to make a change.
The real challenge isn’t just about retention…
It’s about creating an environment where your Rockstars choose to stay and thrive.
One where you can achieve success on your own terms, whether that’s market position, revenue growth, sustainable profits, or the peace of mind that comes from knowing your people are taken care of.
This is where Joe Paulsen’s approach is different.
He believes the key to retention isn’t just about compensation or benefits.
It’s about truly understanding what makes your Rockstars tick.
What motivates them? What do they want to accomplish? What gives them purpose beyond a paycheck?
