Why employees stay

Description
A very relevant question in the pig industry: Why do employees stay? And why would they decide to leave? It’s all about paying enough attention to these matters – and it is exactly this type of question that got the interest of emeritus professor Larry Firkins, attached to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is a veterinarian who developed a special interest in management matters and how culture in a pig-related work environment can help building a more pleasant work atmosphere. He will discuss this matter with host Vincent ter Beek, editor of Pig Progress.
