HUNGRY: Where do I want to go? HUSTLE: How will I get there?

Knowing why an employee leaves your company can help you to reduce your employee turnover rate. That's because you can use the reasons a departing employee provides to gather information about processes, people and departments that might need some redirection to correct situations that may have contributed to the employee's reasons for leaving. So, do an exit interview whenever possible with each departing employee.

What follows is my answer to the consultant who asked the question: Even though this is a simple question, I’m going to give you multiple answers!

Value is perhaps the most illusive word in sales. Everyone will tell you how important it is, very few can tell you what it is. I’ve already gone on ad nauseam about my distaste for the words ‘added value.’ I recommend you leave them out of your sales lexicon forever. ‘Added value’ has an evil twin: ‘value add.’ Neither of which can be defined in terms of what the customer actually benefits or profits from.

George Bernard Shaw once said, “The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.” Therein lies the problem. In environments where communication is poor, we are either not investing the time it takes to communicate effectively, we believe communication is happening at a sufficient level when in fact it is not, or we are simply not listening well.

What if what you know didn’t matter anymore? What if knowledge became a commodity? What if everyone could be an expert? Far-fetched, you think? Well, in fact, the “what if” is no longer speculative; it is here already. Talk to people in such professional service industries as private banking, auditing, consulting, even engineering, and you begin to hear concerns about the commoditization of professional knowledge.

Does this sound familiar? When your team reviews web analytics in your monthly marketing meeting, the person in charge of analytics reports says, “We got 123,456 visitors to our website this month.” Perhaps someone makes an effort to tie analytic metrics to business targets, but in no real depth, and the next item on the meeting agenda swiftly takes over without any action items being set as a result of the review.

She shared, “When Bob started to challenge him, I was really afraid for his career, but Joe (the COO) actually seemed okay with it.” She laughed as she said how lucky he was that he wasn’t fired, and how other people hadn’t faired so well in the past.
