“Measuring the Impact of Coaching to Retain Top Talent”
As organizations continue to evaluate the effectiveness of their people-related strategies and programs, more coaches find they must demonstrate the real impact coaching makes to an organization. While it is widely accepted that coaching programs are effective in developing top talent, coaching is also an effective solution for retaining top talent. The challenge for most coaches is how to credibly measure coaching's impact in retaining talent.
In this session, you'll learn how to use coaching as a talent retention solution by implementing a strategic, accountability approach that measures business impact in addition to ROI. Register Now!
“Stay Actively Employed in Your Chosen Profession: WLP!”
"Action is the antidote to despair." -- Joan Baez
You can register now for two new learning programs in December to help you "walk the talk," in honor of our profession's upcoming Employee Learning Week (ELW) celebration, the ELW slogan of "Linking Learning to Organizational Results."
Employee Learning Week is ASTD's awareness campaign to build public understanding of, and support for, workplace learning as a vital business development strategy. On-going employee learning is essential in all American organizations -- large or small, for-profit, non-profit or government -- to help the United States maintain its economic competitiveness in a rapidly changing and increasing global marketplace.
The Chapter Incentive Program is a way of helping our local chapter financially, which in turn helps us create new programs. When you support the National ASTD by renewing your membership, buying a book, or registering for a national conference, the local chapter earns a part of the revenue. Each chapter has been assigned a source code (for Puget Sound Chapter = CH8020). When you use the chapter source code to purchase ASTD products and services, our chapter will automatically get its share.
