As talent shortages sweep the nation and frontline managers face increasing pressure to retain staff, bestselling author and employee retention expert Richard Finnegan sounds the alarm in his powerful new book, “Targeting Turnover: Make Managers Accountable, Win the Workforce Crisis,” available for purchase on September 9, 2025, from Berrett-Koehler Publishers.<\/p>\n
Finnegan, widely recognized as the originator of Stay Interviews and a frequent SHRM speaker, draws on decades of research and client success across high-turnover industries \u2013 from healthcare to manufacturing \u2013 to present a bold truth: the U.S. labor force is shrinking, and the only sustainable way forward is to stop losing good employees.<\/p>\n
\u201cForget perks and Ping-Pong tables,\u201d says Finnegan. \u201cThe number one reason employees stay or leave is trust in their immediate supervisor. And most companies aren\u2019t holding those leaders accountable for building it.\u201d<\/p>\n
With five previous books and work spanning six continents, Finnegan has become a go-to expert for turning around turnover rates. His model \u2013 used by companies like Wayne-Sanderson Farms, Covenant Health, and Clayton Homes \u2013 has helped reduce employee exits by 30% to 58%(i), generating millions in savings and boosting morale in the process.<\/p>\n
