Stay Interviews
Many leaders within education are experiencing higher turnover rates than usual. The Wall Street Journal recently reported that 300,000 teachers and school staff left the field between February 2020 and May of this year.

She explains how Stay Interviews can contribute positively to an organization and how they are more than simply convincing high performers to stay.
