Overview:
Employers today face
two major HR challenges: attracting workers and retaining workers. But workers
are not all the same. In fact, research indicates that some workers are as much
as 20 times more productive than those in the same job category. That means one
worker may be as productive as TWENTY other workers. How can such workers be
attracted to organizations? One approach is to rely on the referrals of other high
potentials already employed by the organization. But great care must be taken
in identifying high potentials to make referrals, since research indicates that
managers are not always the best judges of who are the high potentials. In this
session hear about strategies to attract high potential employees through
referrals, how to identify the right people to make the referrals, and how to
reward workers for making high potential referrals.
Session Highlights:

approach to identify high potentials
