company’s purpose as a whole and diversification. In terms of strategies to insure

mission and core values to ensure "Strategic Intent" creates a culture where the employee
see their value and an opportunity to grow. This must be communicated proficiently with
clarity and transparency to maintain trust in the workforce. (Cloutier et al, 2015)
Second, we recommend that managers realize that choosing diversity as part of their
workforce is no longer optional, but absolutely instrumental for any organization's
success. The United States economy is no longer driven by manufacturing goods as it
used to be during the industrial revolution, but by the service sector. In this sector,
skilled workforce is drawn globally, and therefore the knowledge of diversity, its traits
and characteristics is a must. (Cloutier et al, 2015)

costly employee turnover. There are two broad based strategies that Java Corp can follow
to reduce costly employee turnover. Retention research and benchmark surveys can be
used to reduce costly employee turnover. Retention research can shed valuable light on
