Most failures in employee retention culture trace back to a conversation someone avoided having. Authority is granted by the organisation; credibility in the practice within organisational leadership is earned separately. Applied research in organisational leadership consistently shows that early structure around the wider organisational leadership agenda reduces downstream rework. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in employee retention culture, not around theory headings. Moving the practice within organisational leadership from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of the organisational leadership capability and prepares them for it. It is designed for mixed groups, so that employee retention culture is examined from more than one functional angle. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in this part of organisational leadership before they become incidents. The final session converts the week's work on the wider organisational leadership agenda into commitments with owners and dates.
