Improving Employee Retention: Leadership AI Prompts

Stay interviews are the best-kept secret for retention. You don't wait for them to quit to ask 'what would keep you here?'—you ask them *while* they are performing well. This template sets the stage: it's not a performance review, it's a conversation about *their* success.
