In turn, it is important to address turnover through a systematic problem solving process. It is vitally important to use facts, not anecdotal evidence to identify root problems, because as demonstrated, each stage of the problem solving process builds on the previous stage. If, for example, the problem is incorrectly identified, the solutions will be suboptimal and could even create new problems. Further, the action plan will yield limited (if any) success. The key to correctly identifying the root cause of turnover is to determine what drives turnover and retention.
Recent research indicates employee turnover is linked to poor training and poor performance. If an employee feels he/she not doing a good job, there no satisfaction and a lack of motivation. (Ton, 2012, pg.
Incivility in the Workplace and Impact on Nurse Retention Clinical Question The clinical question that is being addressed is whether nurse incivility leads to high turnover rates in the clinical setting. Nurse incivility is a serious issue that must be addressed. Studies have shown that incivility, such as bullying in the work environment is a major source of job dissatisfaction (Berry, 2016). It is important to understand that based on research studies, a healthy work environment is related to improved nurse retention and higher levels of job satisfaction (Ctsai, 2011).

Medical Care, 47(10), 1039-1045. doi:10.1097/MLR.0b013e3181a3cc62 Location: JSTOR Purpose and Key finding: The aim of this paper is to estimate the net costs associated with turnover of direct care staff in nursing homes. The study showed that turnover and cost is negative i.e. turnover is associated with cost saving.
Without a doubt, retention remains a perennial problem for most large organizations; and in no other field is retention of qualified and dedicated professionals more critical to both the organization and its clients that the field of healthcare. Staffing hospitals, clinics and other medical facilities stands as a critical challenge due to the fact all patients need and deserve high-quality health care delivered efficiently and on time. The consequences are simply too great to consider any other possibility. Yet, hospitals and medical-care facilities seem to be suffering from a disease or high turnover rates as patient care providers leave for better opportunities or leave the field altogether due stresses caused by understaffing. Fortunately
Specific mention may be made of three such theories; Fielder’s contingency theory, situational leadership and Path- Goal theory. The Fielder contingency theory suggests that there must be a strong leader- member relationship. A leader
The workplace had become a high stress environment in many organizations cutting across industries. Employees were experiencing high level of stress due to various factors
This section reviews theories on employee retention. 2.2.1 Herzberg Two Factor Theory Frederick Herzberg (1959) two-factor theory is also known as the motivation-hygiene or the dual-factor theory. Herzberg’s theory states that certain factors in the organization related to the contentment of the job which provides satisfying experience for employees while separate set of hygiene factors cause dissatisfaction among employees in the workplace. The former factors are called motivators or satisfiers and include achievement, recognition, the work itself, responsibility, opportunity to do something meaningful, sense of importance, advancement and growth while the former factors are known as hygiene factors such as job security, fringe benefits, salary paid
According to Jong and Hartog (2007) described leadership as a process to influence
Because of this high cost of turnover, the organization sought to understand their employee’s turnover intentions and the reasons for the potential turnover. Through a series of surveys, observations, and interviews, it was determined that the location of the company and its compensation package were the most common factors in remaining with the company and that compensation and lack of challenge and opportunity were the most common factors in contemplating leaving the organization.” “Allen and Meyer (2003), have studied that a model through which the effects of HR practices (i.e. participation in decision making, fairness of rewards and growth opportunities) and POS on voluntary employee turnover were investigated. As outcome of that, the study reported a quantitative assessment that strongly supported the influencing relationship of these organizational factors in employee withdrawal.” “Legge and Wolfe (2003), have investigated that the top ten strategies critical to successful retention: (i) Be data driven (ii) Develop a profile of your ideal candidate (iii) Develop a compelling value proposition (iv) Increase your pool of candidates (v) Improve your selection process (vi) Invest in employee orientation (vii)
Out of those, leadership styles and contingency theories dominate the current literature on leadership. There are two major studies on leadership styles
) There are many different kinds of support given to workers in order to help them deal with stress. Here we will be looking at types of stress support given to employees as well as their stressors, by giving examples of these derived from the case study. Types of support given can include psychological support, cognitive support, employee assistance programs and physical support (Lehrer et al, 1994). Types of stressors that employees face are work overload, work-life balance, emotional and physical labor, job ambiguity and job demands (Danna & Griffin, 1999). Under psychological support there are various mediation and relaxation techniques that are used in order to help support employees suffering from stress.
According to Bauer and Erdogan (2010), we have Fiedler’s Contingency Theory, Situational Leadership, Path-Goal Theory of Leadership, and Vroom and Yetton’s Normative Decision Model. I will explain three of these theories one-by-one, then discuss their advantages and disadvantages, and then analyze how each fits with my personality traits and leadership method. Fiedler’s Contingency Theory is based upon the LPC scale of a person also known as the Least Preferred Coworker (Bauer & Erdogan, 2010). If you have a high LPC, that means you still think well of even the worst coworker you could imagine. If you have a low LPC, it means that you think that the coworker you would hate would also be a bad person.
Employees are the most important part for any organization. They are the associate degree and are the integral part of the organization, without the employees the company cannot imagine to grow and cannot additionally be ineffectual to realize something not even a single goal of the organization. Turnovers lead to more turnovers. Herd mentality is what men and women
