OK, so you've got a new job. Now, let's keep it!
A new book by Milo and Thuy Sendell, "Sink or Swim: New Job, New Boss, 12 Weeks to Get it Right," looks at the retention issue from the most important perspective: the employee's. After all, who gets hurt most when a new job doesn't work out? The authors outline five strategies for:
- Goal setting
- Time management
- Knowledge management
- Teamwork
You can read something about the strategies -- and the advice they give employers -- in the article they wrote for the Electronic Recruiting Exchange.
It never hurts to see tings from the boss' perspective.
