When Top Talent Walks: How to Prepare Today for Tomorrow's Turnover with Beth Sunshine
Manage episode 497515435 series 3399397
In this episode, we’re exploring what smart sales leaders do before their top performers resign.
And joining Matt is Beth Sunshine, SVP/Talent Services at The Center for Sales Strategy.
Her contribution to the 2025 Talent Magazine highlights the importance of being ready long before turnover happens. And, here, she shares actionable ways to build that readiness into your talent strategy.
Beth brings so much wisdom to the table, including:
- Why it’s essential to protect the relationships with your people who leave, because “boomerang” employees are all too common
- How, when it comes to referrals, vague requests get vague results
- And, finally, why the only thing more expensive than making the wrong hire, is waiting too long to make the right one
