The Retention Studio LLC  ·  Retention Intelligence™
Observable Retention
Risk Indicators
What to watch for before people tell you they are leaving. Organized across the five touchpoints where retention is won or lost.
"You don't need a resignation letter to know someone is leaving. You need to know what to look for before they decide."
How to read each signal type
Performance
Signals visible in someone's output, quality, and trajectory. What you can observe or measure in the work itself.
Behavioral
Signals visible in how someone shows up, moves through the firm, and relates to the people around them. What you can see without looking at the work.
Leadership
Signals visible to you as the leader. What you may be doing, not doing, or not yet seeing that is contributing to the risk. This is a two-way mirror.

Pattern detected. Have the conversation.
How to Use This List
One signal is a moment. Two or three from the same person within 60 days is a conversation you need to have.

This checklist is not a performance tool. It is a relationship tool. The goal is not to catch people — it is to see them before they stop feeling seen.

When you notice a pattern, do not address the behavior. Address the person.

Ask one question: "How are you actually doing here?" Then listen for what they do not say.

What Comes Next
You already knew something was off.
Now you know where.

Flagging signals tells you where to look. The Retention Intelligence™ Audit tells you what it means, which of your five touchpoints is driving the most risk, and what to do about it — in the right order, with a plan you can act on the same week.

One day. All five touchpoints assessed. You leave with a complete diagnosis, a turnover cost analysis, a 90-Day Action Roadmap, and one precision fix deployed. Your time commitment: 2–3 hours.
