TalentKeepers Engagement and Retention Solutions
TalentKeepers’ Experience and Capabilities
TalentKeepers® was founded in 2000 to conduct global research on why highly valued employees choose to join, stay, and leave organizations. Our findings have enabled us to develop proven solutions for the most challenging talent management issues. Partnering with organizations in virtually every industry around the world, we continue to find that optimizing employee engagement is one of the greatest unmet opportunities in business today. The criticality of employee engagement is not subject to the vagaries of the economy; employers always need to engage their talented people, whether during times of little or rapid growth. Securing the future of the organization resides in your people.
TalentKeepers is well experienced in the human resources industry, specializing in talent management, with award-winning solutions in onboarding, employee engagement, leadership development, employee retention, and other key talent management areas. Our team of industrial/organizational psychologists will work collaboratively with you to develop a talent management strategy, correlate results to your key business metrics, and execute strategies that get results.
How will we accomplish this? We’ll work with you in attacking organization, job and career, coworker, and leader factors that keep high performers engaged. We also provide ongoing analytic information that enables you to monitor and benchmark the impact of the four factors that influence peoples’ decisions to join, stay, or leave. Predictive information will allow you and your organization to take proactive and preemptive action. With our solutions you can build a culture that keeps your best talent, boosts productivity, and cuts labor costs.
In addition to partnering with organizations, since 2004, TalentKeepers has conducted Workplace America, the longest continuously running study on employee engagement in the United States. This research allows us to better understand the cost, causes, and consequences of disengaged employees and to share proven strategies that help keep your employees top of mind and engaged.

- Increased speed time-to-productivity

Step one of this process sometimes means going back to the basics. Developing recruiters and hiring the right talent is critical for organizational success. By supporting the recruiting process, your organization will:

- Hold recruiters and other key stakeholders accountable for new hire retention goals.
