Retention Strategy: Invest in Your Best with Melanie Hill

Mary Beth Meadows & Katie Saliba Season 1 Episode 2

In this episode, we’re breaking down the various ways healthcare and benefits play an important role in providing for employees and how companies can get them without breaking the bank with Melanie Hill, who is a Field Representative for Alabama Senator Katie Britt’s Office and helps connect with the people of Southeast Alabama and learn their needs.  

 

Here we explore: 

  • Why retention matters and helps companies thrive because good people matter to the business and their other employees 
  • How new candidates form an impression about companies as soon as they hear about them and what you can do to help that 
  • What you can do to leave an excellent and lasting impression on new hires, from when they’re hired to when they start their first day 
  • The common onboarding mistakes companies make and how you can prevent those 
  • Why it’s vital to invest in your people – whether you’re training them to succeed in new roles or just asking about their lives 
  • Melanie’s 3 “B”s and how you can use them to transform your company 
  • The critical role feedback plays with employees and why it’s better to be direct if you’re giving them constructive criticism or words of encouragement 
  • Why culture is essential in holding your people together and how it can elevate your business
