Voices of Influence #2: Retaining GCC Talent: Why People Stay, Leave and Disengage

4 September 2026 ebp Comments Off

Retaining talented people has become one of the biggest challenges facing organisations across the GCC. 

Employees are looking for more than competitive pay. They want purposeful work, opportunities to develop, supportive leadership, flexibility and a culture where they feel valued.

During our recent webinar presented by Hamad Alnajjar, we explored why people stay, why they leave, and the early signs of disengagement that every leader should recognise.

Together, we discussed the factors that influence retention, including leadership, career development, recognition, well-being, employee voice, trust and organisational culture. We also examined practical retention strategies that are delivering results across the GCC, from strengthening manager capability and internal mobility to using people analytics to make better decisions.
