HR Training Course Retaining Top Employees

Center of Business Administration (CBA) successfully conducted its 8th HR Training Course on “Retaining Top Employees” on Saturday, October 17th, 2020 at the Safi Landmark Hotel, Kabul, Afghanistan.

The 8th HR Training Course which was about “Retaining Top Employees” included three sessions. The topics discussed the competitive advantage of retaining top employees, who they were and how to retain them in a company. This course was particularly designed for owners and managers of organizations. This training was essential for employers who have consistent problems with high staff turnover – especially of top employees that affect business performance in the market. The training aimed at showing different ways to employees in retaining a competent, energetic, and devoted staff for business goals that is one of biggest challenges of the employers today.

This course assumptions were based on staff turnover, especially of top employees. Generally, when top employees want to resign, the employer usually tries to persuade them to stay through offering them incentives, such as an increase in their salary, or promotion. Top employees of a company usually resign under pretenses of family circumstances or personal issues. The enterprise lacks a long-term strategy for retaining top employees. HRM activities are usually short-term and pragmatic. The task of identifying top employees is difficult, as the enterprise lacks an effective system to evaluate performance and achievements.

As a result of the training, participants learnt skills to retain top employees centered on salary, bonuses, and rewards as stipulated by law. Plus, the participants gained necessary skills of identifying the importance of retaining top employees in supporting the company’s competitive edge, the functions of HRM, the role of the employers in retaining top employees, identifying top employees by qualitative and quantitative measures, number of ways to understand expectations of top employees, the tools for retaining top employees and ways to apply it in practice in their business activities.
