About this title

Synopsis

The senior living industry has a serious employee engagement problem.

40% of new employees leave within the first 90 days.

Less than 15% of employees are engaged worldwide.

More than 50% of employees are looking to leave their current jobs.

More than 75% of employees would work more hours for a more empathetic employer.

Doreen A. Lang’s book, Hang on to Your Stars: The First 90-Days: A Step-By-Step Employee Engagement Solution for the Senior Living Community, answers the critical retention questions facing the senior living industry today and will save you a fortune in recruiting and hiring costs.

Lang explains why the senior care industry has an engagement problem; introduces you to the next emerging leaders, the Millennials; identifies the leadership traits necessary to lead; and takes you through steps on how to engage your new employees—before they even walk through the door. Through personal anecdotes, large data, and unique engagement games, you will learn to become the kind of leader who will make employees think twice before leaving.

For over two decades, Lang has worked with hundreds of employees, run engagement workshops, and managed senior living communities. Working in the industry, she sees first-hand the retention challenges facing the senior care industry today. In Hang on to Your Stars. she shares the steps that she has followed to successfully engage and retain her own staff.
