title: Winning employee-retention strategies for today's healthcare organizations.
abstract: Employees today want more out of a job than a big salary. Workers' expectations have shifted over the past few decades. Employers need to recognize five key changes in workers' expectations, namely that they want to lead balanced lives, enjoy partnership with their employers, receive opportunities for personal and professional growth, be able to make a meaningful contribution to the world through their work, and experience opportunities to socialize at work. Healthcare organizations that want to attract and retain the employees that they need can achieve competitive advantage in the marketplace by responding to these new work values.
