Culture After COVID: Nurturing Safe Space, Ensuring Employee Retention

A new study from Nonprofit HR reveals that 45% of employees will seek new or different employment in the next five years. Employees leave for different reasons – low pay, lack of career growth, low functioning business models, poor management, and more; yet, the significant negative impact on the organizations’ finances and culture is the same.

In Nurturing Safe Space, former nonprofit executive director Ginny Waller will facilitate a virtual workshop for leaders to improve employee retention through the reinforcement of a culture of high psychological safety in which people can take interpersonal risks by speaking their truths. The facilitator will lead peer discussions around identifying the elements of a healthy organizational culture and strategies to increase employee engagement.

Strategically focusing on building a safe space through the prioritization of wellness and intentional relationship building is integral to maintaining low employee turnover. Join us to identify and develop strategies to engage your team members and improve employee retention.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

• Identify the essential elements of a healthy organizational culture.
• Identify methods of employee engagement.
• Develop strategies to improve employee retention.
