    In this episode of No Silver Spoons, Sarah Beth discusses the critical issue of retention struggles in businesses. She emphasizes the importance of not blaming clients or team members, but instead addressing the underlying issues within leadership, systems, and communication. Citing studies from Harvard Business Review and the Journal of Leadership and Organizational Studies, Sarah Beth highlights the significance of emotional connection and transformational leadership. She outlines four key areas where retention often breaks down: disjointed onboarding, lack of personal connection, weak feedback systems, and poor narrative control. Sarah Beth advocates for an 'ethics team' or 'learning lab' approach to turn losses into learning opportunities, thus creating a culture of accountability and growth. She concludes by urging leaders to take actionable steps to understand and improve their business practices.
