Good Vs. Bad Turnover - You Make the Call....

Check out my article at workforce.com on Good vs. Bad Turnover...

Here's how it starts:

"I know what you are thinking about turnover. As a practical HR pro, you already know that all turnover is not created equal.

You were reminded of that reality when your own employee relations nightmare (we’ll call him Jim) resigned voluntarily after causing 16 unique complaints from other employees because of his "opinions." (A new record! Unfortunately, none of them were quite enough for you to discipline or terminate him.) Jim was good turnover—really good turnover."

Kris:

Great post with an important point behind it on the complexity of the turnover issue. To show you that great minds do work alike, see my post below which addresses the same topic from a slightly different angle.
