THE FUTURE/STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

RETENTION

To keep our best people we will:

• Be clear on our vision and ethos, to attract and retain Trustees, staff and

volunteers, who are a good fit with our culture and mission.

• Demonstrate that we value our people at every opportunity, through
providing them with the resources they require, recognising achievements
and being a supportive employer.

• Develop our people to continually improve, by providing training, coaching
and progression opportunities.

• Reward staff as best we can, through appropriate pay rates and other

benefits that add value.

• Ensure that we engage effectively by having clear, accessible and open
channels of communication.

• Help everyone’s wellbeing through provision of support opportunities and
social activities.

• Strive to replicate what works well in some projects, into those where
retention is an issue.

Required Action: develop a comprehensive Succession Plan for all levels within the

organisation.

Further Thoughts: how do we compete with other providers for staff, eg. Council?
