People don't leave companies they leave managers. Best Companies measures how people feel about leadership, development, reward and wellbeing, helping you to identify key differences across teams. Use the findings alongside exit feedback and turnover data to decide what to change and where retention is at risk.

Why choose Best Companies?
How we can help
From Guesswork...
...To What Works
Challenge #1
Turnover data only shows when staff leave, not why
Tracking turnover numbers fails to capture the reasons that employees leave.
Solution #1
Integrate employee survey data into your retention strategy
Use b-Heard survey feedback to examine leadership, growth, wellbeing and reward to help inform your retention strategy.
Challenge #2
An overall score can hide local concerns
A positive organisation-wide engagement score can hide significant retention risks happening within individual departments.
Solution #2
Analyse team-level and location-level feedback
Workplace Insight lets you explore results by team, location and job grade. Use this data to provide greater focus to your retention strategy.
Challenge #3
Strategies fail when they lack ownership
Without defined next steps and clear accountability, employee feedback leads to stagnant retention rates.
Solution #3
Establish clear priorities and assign owners
Use the 1+3 Method to recognise one strength and focus on three improvement priorities. Assign owners and review actions alongside later engagement and retention measures.
