Ending on a positive note 👋 

Remember how we discussed feedback touchpoints in our last issue? Today, let’s look at what’s often seen as the final touchpoint with an employee who is leaving: the exit interview. 🚪 

When employees are preparing to leave, they often feel more liberated to express their true opinions without fear of repercussions. This candidness can provide HR leaders with

➡️ actionable feedback like what policies or processes need improvement and

➡️ uncover underlying issues that are typically hard to come by through regular feedback mechanisms

What questions can truly help us get actionable feedback? Let’s explore a few key questions for exit interviews that benefit both you and the departing employee, while maintaining a positive relationship even after they leave. 🤓 

👋 Reasons for Leaving: Understanding why employees choose to leave is key. Ask open-ended questions to get a clear picture.

• What factors contributed to your decision to resign, and what could have been done to prevent you from leaving?

• What is one thing you wish you could change about our organization to make it an even better place to work?

😢 What do they have that we don’t? Find out what attracted your employees to their new positions.

• Are there aspects of the new company’s culture that appeal to you more?

📈 Overall satisfaction and room to grow: Get insights into their experience with career development at your company.

• What did we do well? What could we have done better?

• Were there adequate opportunities for you to grow and advance within the company?

• What training or development programs did you find helpful or lacking?

🧑‍💼 Management / Leadership: Not all leadership styles resonate with everyone, but gaining insight into different perceptions can help improve management practices.

• What advice would you give management?

• Were you and your supervisor able to work together effectively?

🤝 Maintaining Relationships: Keeping the door open for future connections is crucial:

• We’re sorry to see you go, but we wish you all the best. Would you be open to returning if the right opportunity arose in the future?

• Anything you want to share but didn’t get an opportunity to?

By approaching exit interviews with an open mind and a genuine interest in learning, you can uncover valuable insights that help create a better workplace for everyone. 🙌 

So, let’s make these conversations meaningful and use them to drive positive change. Happy interviewing! 😊
