Thank you for joining me for this episode of the Very Nonprofit – Very Real Podcast, with Canadian nonprofit educator, best-selling author and leadership coach, Paula J. Maclean.

Today’s episode focuses on the 6 leading factors that impact employee retention in all nonprofit workplaces. We also mine down on why compensation is ONE factor, and why most recent literature tells us it isn't the Most Important one! This episode is the first in a series on creating better retention. In the next episode, we will go all the way back to recruitment and the fit between the new employee and the role they are hired into.

Join me every week as we lift-up both your skills and your spirits on your nonprofit leadership journey. Together we will explore everything you need to know to successfully lead the people side of your nonprofit.
