SECTOR: PHARMA
When turnover puts critical knowledge at risk
Training a professional in pharma isn’t just a matter of onboarding. Processes are complex, regulatory frameworks demand precision, and each employee amasses key know-how that can’t be lost. But one day, they resign. And with them goes the expertise you spent years building.
Turnover in this sector doesn’t just cost money; it impacts the continuity of critical projects. The pressure and high level of demand cause burnout, and by the time you notice, it’s already too late.
The problem isn’t just attracting talent, but retaining it before burnout and disengagement lead to resignations.
How do you prevent key knowledge and experience from walking out the door before you can react?
