Estimate based on the widely used 50%-of-salary replacement-cost heuristic (recruitment, onboarding, lost productivity). Your real number may be higher for senior roles.

Departures rarely surprise the data

Engagement scores typically slide for months before a resignation. The signal is there — if anyone is listening.

The exit interview is too late

By then the decision is made and the cost is locked in. An anonymous pulse moves that conversation 6 months earlier.

Acting is what retains

The brief doesn't just flag risk — it tells you the next move, so the person at risk sees something change.
