Retaining talented employees is one of the top priorities of employers today. Reasons for attrition could be the innumerable changes engulfing workplaces, such as reorganization, higher performance standards, and resultant high-pressure levels. The challenge is not only to attract the best talent but also to retain them. Rising opportunities for career development, lifestyle decisions, job mobility, unbalanced work-life, poor mentoring, and stress are some factors that influence an individual's decision to continue or quit.
