"I want Cara on my team every day! Whether it’s a gathering of HR professionals, executives, small business owners, or management teams – if Cara is your keynote, you can rest easy. She’s going to do whatever it takes to get a hit. More than that, she'll likely hit a home run. If you’re ready for a win, get Cara in your lineup now!"

VP Human Resources

"Cara’s expertise in workplace culture is truly remarkable. She offers a wide range of services that span every facet of a company, from managers to executives, with the goal of reducing turnover and retaining employees. What struck me most about Cara’s presentation was the practicality and actionability of her tips and strategies. She not only imparts valuable insights but also generously shares her wealth of knowledge. I wholeheartedly recommend Cara as both a speaker and a consultant."

"Over the years, Cara has transformed the mindset of our members, many of whom were a bit 'set' in their ways (not surprising for concrete people!). Our leaders now realize staff aren’t just leaving for 'a buck more an hour,' and that they must make the necessary changes to become more attractive employers. Together, she and I are on a mission to make the concrete industry an employer of choice, not just a job!"

Executive Director

"Cara is a must-have speaker! Her session directly pinpoints the employment issues our association leaders and their member businesses are wrestling with today. I learned so much about a topic I thought I already understood, and so did our members. In fact, several reached out to Cara immediately after the session to utilize her as a resource for their members moving forward. Every association would benefit from her timely and relevant message!"

ABOUT CARA SILLETTO

Workforce thought leader and keynote speaker Cara Silletto, MBA, CSP, works with organizations of all sizes to reduce unnecessary employee turnover by bridging generational gaps and making managers more effective in their roles. As an early Millennial herself, she knows first-hand what it is like to have a heightened sense of entitlement, very little employee loyalty, and a dependency upon her smartphone. However, unlike many Millennials, Cara has figured out exactly how these attributes were cultivated during her formative years, and she now shares that story with leaders across the country, including teams at Toyota, UPS, Cintas, and Humana.

Cara learned early in her career, from her Baby Boomer and GenX mentors, what “professionalism” meant to them, and absorbed critical information about management expectations during her first decade in the business world. She then went on to earn her Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) from the top-ranked University of Louisville Entrepreneurship program, and then lived overseas teaching German executives about business practices in the U.S. In 2012, Cara started her consulting firm Magnet Culture, a Crescendo Strategies company.

Workforce Magazine in Chicago named Cara a “Game Changer” for her innovative approach to solving generational issues in the workplace and Recruiter.com listed her in their “Top 10 Company Culture Experts to Watch,” list. Today, she’s a highly-sought-after national speaker conducting 50 to 100 engagements annually and she has earned her Certified Speaking Professional (CSP) designation, which less than 10% of speakers achieve. Louisville Business First named Cara one of their 2018 Forty Under 40, and she is also the author of the book, Staying Power: Why Your Employees Leave & How to Keep Them Longer.

CARA SILLETTO PROGRAMS & TOPICS

IN THIS TOGETHER: Becoming a Team of Retention Champions

When employee turnover seems never-ending, it negatively affects everyone on staff and keeps organizations from building cohesive teams. As many teams remain consistently understaffed, it becomes vital that everyone plays a part in improving team retention. Doing so means less stress and more restful sleep at night for all!

Cara Silletto will energize and empower your entire team to reduce “us vs. them” team conflicts at work. Participants will leave this powerful, engaging session with a renewed sense of commitment to the organization and ownership in the retention solution. Our people are our greatest retention advocates, so let’s all attract others onto our teams, instead of repelling the talent we can’t afford to lose.

Learning Objectives:

  • Explore ways to reduce negative and critical judgment of others
  • Learn to recognize all valuable contributions on our teams
  • Become a magnetic Retention Champion who helps reduce team turnover

WORKFORCE WAKE-UP CALL: It’s Time to Operationalize Turnover

In the current workforce landscape, employees have the upper hand with “now hiring” signs on every corner. Staffing challenges and employee turnover are here to stay. It’s time for leaders to rethink staffing stability and set realistic goals, budgets, and business models around unavoidable turnover. The best way to increase employee retention is to plan for and adjust current operations to manage impending levels of employee turnover and make the proper long-term retention investments.

This session will explore strategies for operationalizing turnover so your organization can plan for sustainable success. As the saying goes, failing to plan is planning to fail. Make your organization a place where keeping people is an actual goal, not just a recurring discussion.

Learning Objectives:

  • Discover current employee turnover trends and future staffing projections
  • Learn ways to plan and implement strategies to prepare for ongoing turnover
  • Determine strategies that close the gap to keep people longer and improve profitability

STAYING POWER: How to Keep Employees Longer

While some of today’s workforce is made up of deep-rooted, dependable staff, a larger number of positions are now a revolving door of employee turnover. Cara Silletto will share insight on why staffing is so challenging today and additional ways to gain greater staffing stability. Learn how to slow the revolving door, more effectively manage the impending shorter-term workforce, and maximize the time you have with each employee.

Learning Objectives:

  • Discover current employee turnover trends and future staffing projections
  • Uncover the real reasons employees leave most organizations and ways to encourage them to stay
  • Learn ways to become a M.A.G.N.E.T. employer who attracts better applicants and keeps staff longer

IT’S NOT ABOUT BIRTH YEAR: The Generational Story You’ve Never Heard

Tired of hearing generational programs that list off mind-numbing statistics? You’ll love Cara’s award-winning unique approach to bridging today’s generational gaps! Hear real-life first-hand stories about the real issues on the T.A.B.L.E. (technology, authority, balance, loyalty, and entitlement) fuel an eye-opening discussion about today’s changing workplace that will shift your mindset about those you work with.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define the updated generational cohorts and why their definitions of “professionalism” vary
  • Uncover exactly why today’s new workforce thinks and acts so differently in the workplace than previous generations
  • Learn how to see others’ views to reduce judgment and improve relationships and retention
