Navy Career Counselor
(by NCI R.T. Milton)
What is retention? What does it
do for me? Well, it affects you and
your division, yes, and your whole
department and the entire command.
Petention is caring, you for your
fellow shipmates, your division of-
ficer for you and most importantly,
you for yourself.
Retention is recognition. Yes,
recognition, if you have some indi-
viduals working for you who do a
better job than their peers. Recog-
nize them, in words as well as deeds
and most of all, be sincere.
Don't recognize an individual
just because he is there each day.
Make your praise important to the
recipient. Make each "well done"
count or they are meaningless.
Retention is getting to know the
people who work for you. Yes, get
to know your people, their likes,
aspirations, desires, families and
most of all career intentions. A
tall order? Absolutely! However,
no one ever said that our job would
be easy.
Challenging, yes. Easy, no. But
I've got 65 people in my division,
how can I get to know them all?
The obvious answer is you can't.
So just give up and ignore every-
thing that you have read so far.
No that is not the answer.
Of course it will be hard. It
will require you and the chief to
get together with the LPOs and
sincerely discuss the make-up of
each individual. It will mean
meeting with them in your spare
time. Taking an interest in your
people means giving up time that
you don't really have. But, the
rewards are great.
Unfortunately, the job's not
easy. It means, motivating, teach-
ing, listening and helping.
Once again I ask you, "What is
retention?" If your answer is
"caring" then you and your division
or command is on the right path, be-
cause retention is caring. The
