Want Agents to Stay? Train Them

It’s no secret that employee turnover is expensive—and rising. But what’s often overlooked is how simple the solution can be.

According to LinkedIn’s 2023 Workplace Learning Report, 94% of employees said they’d stay at a company longer if it invested in their development. And it’s not just theory. Built In found that 45% of employees are more likely to stay in their roles if they receive more training. Meanwhile, over 4 million U.S. workers quit their jobs in a single month in 2022—and 40% of workers across six countries say they’re planning to leave their current roles.

Retention isn’t just a hiring problem. It’s a growth problem.

Too many companies are focused on attracting new talent while doing little to keep the people they already have. And in fast-paced, high-turnover environments like contact centers, the impact is multiplied—because constant turnover means constant retraining, lost productivity, and mounting costs.
