IDENTIFYING AND ADDRESSING<br />

RETENTION ISSUES<br />

TIFFANI BOVA: AUTHOR, GROWTH AND<br />

INNOVATION EVANGELIST,<br />

SALESFORCE<br />

George Sifakis: How can companies innovate and use<br />

different methodologies to help with retention and to retain<br />

the best and the brightest employees that are the lifeblood<br />

of that business?<br />

Tiffani Bova: I'll tell you, the adviser of me, the ex-analyst of me, wants to answer that question right<br />

away. I just want to go, here's the answer; here are the three things you need to do, and I learned a<br />

number of years ago that I was probably doing a disservice to my customers and clients by doing that.<br />

Now when I'm in front of Salesforce customers, and I get the opportunity to meet with executives, and<br />

when they ask me these questions, I've tried to be a much better asker of questions. Instead of<br />

responding with what I think they should do, I will say, I don't know the answer to why you may have<br />

a retention problem or how to fix your retention problem, but I will ask you this. Based on the last<br />

employee survey you did, what were the top three things employees were most unhappy about? And<br />

the answer to that question tells me a lot because if the executive team doesn't know the answer to that<br />

question, then it validates what we found, which was lots of surveys are going on, and data is getting<br />

captured, but nobody's doing anything with that data. If they know the answer, I'll say, great, tell me<br />

what the top three biggest pain points are for your employees, and they'll rattle them off. Then I'll say,<br />

What are the things you're doing to overcome them, fix them, adjust them, whatever needs to happen<br />

in order to improve that part of the employee experience, the employee journey, and they'll start to dig<br />

into it.<br />
