PETERBOROUGH, NH – Nov. 5, 2009 – Costly employee turnover is the greatest staffing concern for top executives. Join Dick Finnegan, a recognized leading advisor on employee retention, as he discusses how to lower employee turnover.

During “What’s the Real Secret to Low Turnover? Accountability!,” a complimentary webinar, Finnegan will explain the value of retention goals and the tools top managers should use. The webinar will take place Thursday, Nov. 19, 2009 from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. Eastern time. Finnegan will share a turnover cost calculator that finance departments can use to put a cost on turnover so employee retention can be reported in dollars, instead of percents.
