Strategies for Retaining Qualified and Experienced Employees in the Nonprofit SectorMason, Ebony Irene 01 January 2018 (has links)
Retention of qualified and experienced employees is the greatest challenge faced by nonprofit organizations. Using transformational leadership theory, the purpose of this single-case study was to explore strategies used by managers of nonprofit organizations to increase employee retention. The population for this study included 3 managers of one nonprofit organization in Texarkana, Texas, with tenure of at least 2 years. These managers had successfully implemented retention strategies to retain qualified and experienced employees for more than 2 years. Collected data included semistructured, face-to-face interviews and from archived documents that pertained to employee retention in nonprofit organizations. The data analysis process comprised 5 steps: compiling, disassembling data for coding, reassembling, interpreting, and reporting data themes. The use of member checking and methodological triangulation increased the trustworthiness of interpretations. The 2 themes that emerged from this study were motivational incentives and effective communication. The implications for positive social change in the nonprofit sector include sustaining the workforce by retaining qualified and experienced employees. With less employee turnover, nonprofit leaders may experience real cost savings. Nonprofit leaders may find the cost savings beneficial in extending available funds for services to local communities.
