The real cost of waiting

Most employees don't quit suddenly.
They decide quietly — weeks before they tell you.

By the time you notice the signs, it's often too late. Stay interviews change that — but only if you know how to run them.

"I don't know where to start or what to ask."

Most managers have never been trained to run a stay interview. Generic templates feel awkward, and the wrong questions can make things worse than saying nothing at all.

"We had a conversation, but nothing changed."

Without a system to track commitments and follow through, stay interviews erode trust. Employees stop sharing honestly when nothing ever happens after they do.

"I don't have time to build this from scratch."

You're running a business. You don't need a 50-page HR manual — you need the essentials, ready to use, in under an hour.

"Replacing someone would cost me a fortune."

Turnover costs 50-200% of an employee's annual salary when you factor in recruiting, onboarding, and lost productivity. One conversation can change the outcome.

What's included

Everything you need to run great stay interviews — starting today.

A complete bundle built from 20 years of HR experience. No fluff. Just the tools that work.

🏢

Small business owners

You wear every hat. This gives you an HR-grade retention tool without needing an HR team — or an HR budget.

🌱

First-time managers

Nobody taught you how to have this kind of conversation. Now you have a script and a system — not just good intentions.

👥

HR professionals

You need something managers will actually use. This is manager-ready, plain-language, and deployable the same week you share it.

A look inside

Questions that open people up — not shut them down.

Every question comes with a coaching note and a follow-up that goes deeper.

STAYING
"What makes you want to stay here — what keeps you coming back?"
Reveals what's actually working. Anchor your retention strategy around these answers.
Follow-up: "If that changed, would it affect your decision to stay?"
ENGAGE
"Is there any part of your job that drains you or feels like a waste of your time?"
Identifies friction and mismatches before they become exit reasons. Often fixable.
Follow-up: "What would you do differently if you could?"
GROWTH
"Where do you see yourself in 1-2 years, and do you see a path here?"
Opens a career conversation without pressure. Lets you course-correct before someone starts looking.
Follow-up: "What would make that path feel more real or achievable?"
RISK
"If you could change one thing about this company or your role, what would it be?"
The closing wildcard — often produces the most honest, actionable answer of the whole conversation.
Follow-up: "What's held that change back so far?"

+ 6 more questions across 5 themes, each with a follow-up prompt

HR Professionals · 20 Years Experience

We've spent two decades working inside organizations of every size, helping professionals, managers, and leaders understand how they work and how to do it better. We've been on both sides of every workplace dynamic Stay Interview describes.

The Stay Interview Conversation System was built because we saw too many talented professionals struggling in silence with relationships and communication patterns they didn't have the language to address. This session gives them that language, and a practical plan for using it.

Simple, one-time pricing

One conversation could pay
for this a hundred times over.

That's exactly what the opening script and ground rules address. Building psychological safety takes more than one conversation — but the scripts are specifically designed to signal safety from the first sentence. The guide covers what to do when employees give short answers or deflect.
Yes — the frequency guide specifically addresses remote and hybrid employees, who are at higher isolation risk. The scripts work equally well over video call.
