Apple Turnovers
The problem at my organization is that it has a high turnover rate. This is naturally a concern because high turnover is associated with higher costs for recruiting and training, lower productivity, lower morale, worse service to the customer and it takes managers' attention away from other things, so managers are less able to make improvements to the business (Markovich, 2014).
In order to address the problem, we first need to diagnose the problem. There are a number of potential causes of a high turnover rate, so it is important for the organization to gather data in order to understand what the causes are for this company.

Finally, this author suggests that the nature of the relationship and the type of psychological contract that emerges between workers and management is highly subjective and will naturally involve individual perceptions that may not be completely discernible without further investigation.
