Employee Engagement and Retention Book Tops Amazon Bestseller List

LOS ANGELES - Aug. 5, 2014 - PRLog -- Love ‘Em or Lose ‘Em: Getting Good People to Stay by Beverly Kaye and Sharon Jordan-Evans topped the Amazon Bestseller list in Human Resources & Personnel Management. It is also ranked forty-three in all books sold by Amazon on July 31^st.

Now in its fifth edition, the book has been revised and updated to include many international examples. Love ‘Em or Lose ‘Em is organized around twenty-six practical strategies —from A to Z—that managers can use to address their employees’ real concerns and keep them engaged. It’s a resource that managers can turn to for low cost or no cost solutions to keep their employees engaged.

Kaye, founder of Career Systems International (CSI) and Jordan-Evans, president of the Jordan Evans Group, wrote the original edition of the book in 1999. Using research results from more than 18,000 employees in a variety of occupations, industries, organizations, and titles, Kaye and Jordan-Evans have created simple strategies that work. The research summarized in the 2014 “What Keeps You” white paper reports that certain stay factors have clearly and consistently surfaced as the top drivers of engaging and retaining talent. The top six stay factors:

* Exciting, challenging or meaningful work
* Supportive management/good boss
* Being recognized, valued, respected
* Career growth, learning and development
* A flexible work environment
* Fair pay
