Practical implications – Particularly, organizations are likely to experience frequent employee turnover for as long as they fail to put in place appropriate employee-retention strategies, which is capable of preventing enhanced performance. Originality/value – This paper provides insight into what could enhance the performance of organizations in their quest for quality service delivery and profitability.
