Consulting & professional services
An adviser on the way out still delivers their hours.
Consultancies and advisory firms have a blind spot few know about: billable hours measure activity, not engagement. Our analysis of the industry shows where it goes wrong, long before anyone sees it on the bottom line.
We have looked at when advisers and consultants actually begin to withdraw, and how far that pattern typically goes before a manager notices. The report points to the early signals found in data the company already has, but rarely uses for this.
Among other things, the report answers:
- How many months typically pass from a consultant beginning to withdraw until the resignation is on the table?
- Which data do you already have that could have seen it earlier?
- What characterises the consultants who stay, but no longer deliver what they used to?
IT & tech
Your developers are contacted by other companies every month, and you hear about it when the resignation is on the table.
In IT and tech, retention is rarely about pay. Our analysis looks at what actually makes developers and specialists take a call, and how early it can be seen.
The report gathers industry data on when engagement typically begins to fall compared with when a resignation actually arrives, and what that distance means for how much time a manager really has to act.
Among other things, the report answers:
- How long typically passes from a developer starting to look around until the resignation arrives?
- Which signals does an external recruitment consultant see that your own system misses?
- Is pay really the deciding factor when your people say yes to something else?
Pharma & life science
Languishing most often shows up as silence among specialists, not as absence.
In pharma and life science, key employees are expensive to lose and hard to replace. Our analysis looks at why languishing here rarely shows up as absence, and what it shows up as instead.
The report goes in depth on the link between silence and resignation in an industry where compliance and documentation often take up more room than the individual conversation, and points to how early the signals actually exist.
Among other things, the report answers:
- What does silence look like before it becomes a resignation, and can you tell it from an ordinary quiet period?
- How much of the languishing is actually seen in the sick leave statistics?
- What does it cost to replace a specialist you did not see leaving?
Manufacturing & industry
There are often signs you can act on before a key employee resigns.
In manufacturing and industry, the middle manager often carries the whole department's wellbeing, without being asked about their own. Our analysis looks at what it costs when that role is not supported.
The report gathers data across shift work and the shop floor, and looks at where the mood can actually be read before it ends in sick leave or resignations among experienced people.
Among other things, the report answers:
- How much of the department's wellbeing actually rests on the middle manager, and who asks about theirs?
- Does the mood differ across the shifts, and do you know it?
- What characterises the experienced employees who disappear before anyone saw it coming?
Construction & trades
Turnover in the crew costs time and training, and the warning rarely comes.
Construction is hard physical work with high quality demands and tight schedules. Our analysis looks at what happens before a tradesperson or foreman chooses to resign.
The report looks at the crew's rhythm and changing composition, and how a signal that could have been seen on site instead only becomes visible once the employee is already gone.
Among other things, the report answers:
- How much of what is said on site reaches management?
- What characterises a crew where a signal is actually seen, versus one where it is not?
- How much of the turnover starts with something that could have been said out loud earlier?
Healthcare & care
The strain builds for months before it becomes a sick leave.
In healthcare and care, burnout is rarely about one turning point. Our analysis looks at the slow wearing down that comes before, and where it can be seen while it can still be influenced.
The report goes in depth on how rosters and the care for the citizen often come before the care for the colleague, and what that means for how early a signal can actually be caught.
Among other things, the report answers:
- How long does the slow wearing down take before it becomes a resignation or a long-term sick leave?
- Do you see a difference between the shifts when it comes to wellbeing, and do you use that knowledge?
- How many newly qualified staff leave again within the first year, and why?
Retail & service
A large part of the turnover could have been avoided if you could act in time.
In retail and service, high turnover is often accepted as a given. Our analysis challenges that assumption and looks at what actually drives it.
The report looks especially at part-timers and young employees, who often fall outside the classic wellbeing tools, and at what separates the turnover that is unavoidable from the turnover that is not.
Among other things, the report answers:
- How much of your turnover is actually unavoidable, and how much is not?
- Are your part-timers even seen by the wellbeing tools you use today?
- What does an average rehire cost, when training is counted in?
