How to supercharge your employee retention strategies, with Core Matters CEO Ryan Englin


So you’ve found a team of great employees. But now your real work is just beginning: actually *keeping* them at your company. Our latest guest — the second time we’ve invited him onto the podcast — is someone who’s built his whole career around helping organizations figure out the tricky world of recruitment and retention. 

 

Ryan Englin is the CEO and Founder of Core Matters, and is passionate about supporting growing businesses to build amazingly productive companies by providing coaching and training on attracting, hiring, and retaining rock star employees using his proven process, the Core Fit Hiring System. 

 

Tune into the full episode for more on how to find rock star employees (NOT super stars!), how most companies mess up during their employee onboarding processes, the problems with employee referral programs, how to counter someone’s counteroffer, and more. 

 

Here’s a Glimpse of What You’ll Learn: 

 

  • More about Ryan’s backstory, including why he left corporate and why he started his own business 

  • Why a recruiting problem is actually a marketing issue

  • How most companies approach their recruiting process — and why it’s not actually the most effective way of attracting good employees

  • Why most employee referral programs don’t work

  • The two problems that organizations need to solve in order to retain their employees

  • The biggest mistakes that companies make during new employee onboarding 

  • How an organization can build great “defining moments” for their employee experience 

  • How to deal with when you’ve chosen a new employee, made an offer, and then that person’s boss makes a counteroffer 

  • Why Ryan tells organizations to “expect nothing” from new employees within their first 2 weeks on the job — and what that time period should include instead 

  • The strategies that Ryan teaches company leaders that help bolster their employee retention 

  • The difference between a “rock star” and a “super star” employee — and why one of them will get you in trouble quickly 

  • More about personality assessments, and how results from those tests can give leaders clues whether an employee is a future rock star or super star 

  • What a “core fit conversation” is, and how leaders can integrate them in order to improve retention

Day 7 - One Week officially in the Books

For those following, there will be a point that you need to break up the push ups into different sets. That is ok and makes sense. Here's my recommendation, whether you do the push ups from your knees or standard push ups, try to do the most amount of reps in a specific set right before you are unable to do anymore. Rest two minutes and then start your next set. Another option is to split the sets in different parts of the day. As you build strength, you will be able to do more reps in each set.
