Companies are beginning to turn to predictive analytics in order to identify employees that are likely to walk out the door. But are employees likely to walk because they feel less engaged or because there are better opportunities available? Michael Housman will dive into some of the research on the drivers of employee attrition by exploring two recent studies as examples:
- The "push" influence that toxic employees have on attrition of their co-workers
- The "pull" influence of recruiters in a world where social media makes it exceptionally easy to poach talented employees at other companies.
He'll conclude by discussing the relative strength of each of these effects.
