????"Not recommending the company to others as a place to work, and not actively referring people for job openings, is a clear early warning sign that the person is disenchanted and is open to offers elsewhere," Anderson notes, adding, "We really think that the answers to all four questions could help employers identify where to focus their retention efforts."

????How do you elicit honest answers? Anderson says top management has to sit down with the talent the company most wants to keep and start some in-depth conversations. He recommends asking, "Are you passionate about what you're doing? Or is there something else here that you'd rather be doing, or that you think we as a company should be doing but we're not?"

????The idea, Anderson says, is to "get at the heart of why this executive is here and how he or she sees the future. What could be going better than it is? How could his or her relationships with higher-ups, and direct reports, be stronger and more effective than they are now?"

????Anderson acknowledges that there's no surefire way to tell who's going to quit, and a recruiter calling with an irresistibly juicy opportunity has been known to tempt even the most diehard loyalist. Even so, "open and direct discussions can go a long way toward getting insights" into how your star players see their current roles — and what it would take to entice them to stick around.
