Welcome to another insightful episode of the Million Dollar Stories Podcast with your host, Mike Fallat! Today, we’re diving into the art of employee retention with none other than Beverly Kaye, celebrated author of the best-selling book, Love ’Em or Lose ’Em, Sixth Edition: Getting Good People to Stay.

For over two decades, this Wall Street Journal bestseller has been the ultimate guide for managers looking to keep their top talent engaged, motivated, and, most importantly, on their team. Now in its sixth edition, Love ’Em or Lose ’Em has sold over 800,000 copies worldwide, and it’s more relevant than ever. Updated to include a critical focus on diversity and inclusion, the book provides 26 actionable strategies—one for each letter of the alphabet—to create a workplace culture that fosters belonging, reduces burnout, and encourages growth.

In this episode, Mike and Beverly discuss why employees continue to crave the same foundational elements—meaningful work, supportive leadership, and opportunities to learn—despite seismic shifts in the workplace. Beverly explains how modern challenges, like talent wars and remote work, require managers to go beyond surface-level efforts and engage in “Conversations That Count.” These practical, heart-centered discussions, introduced in the latest edition, offer managers tools to understand and address employees' individual needs.

From tackling cultural nuances in family leave policies to ensuring employees feel valued through recognition and growth opportunities, Beverly’s strategies resonate with leaders at every level.

If you’re a manager eager to strengthen your team, or an entrepreneur striving to create a culture that retains top talent, this conversation will inspire and empower you. Tune in as Mike and Beverly explore the simple yet profound ways to “love ’em” so you don’t “lose ’em,” right here on the Million Dollar Stories Podcast!
