Retention Management

Workforce trends tell us that new employees may not remain with the same agency for their entire careers. To increase the return on an organization’s employment investment, OPM works with agency officials to develop strategies, processes and plans that provide for the continued growth and development of employees. This increases the current value of an organization's employees and can have a positive impact on their decision to stay or leave.

Getting the most valuable applicants to fill your vacancies dramatically increases the odds of retaining those employees. Placing an emphasis on strong retention strategies can help your organization retain your valuable human capital assets. Let OPM help you design strategies that will help you keep your best people. Types of assistance include:

• Designing job announcements that attract the best candidates
• Developing effective employee orientation programs
• Building a culture of high performance
• Designing career development plans
• Developing effective mentoring programs
• Implementing coaching programs
• Designing easy to use performance management systems
