Exit Reasons
We have been working on identifying the reasons our members leave and have come up with the following categories. It would be great to get our collective wisdom and feedback to see if we have missed anything or if a category is not clear.
If we are happy with the below categories, we can analyse our previous data based on our knowledge.
It will also form part of a leaving/exiting process currently underway.

Looks good and covers most bases. It might be good to put the word 'Burnout' in one of those - maybe 'Lack or recognition and appreciation' or 'Lack of job satisfaction' or 'Workload – over worked' ... all in all I think all bases are covered ... there's a lot of categories!

I agree with Candice that the relocation category should not be included as it will alter the statistics. I think that a tick box of questions should be undertaken at onboarding and/or early coaching/mentoring stages where new members tick off that they have been trained in Jeder HR processes (e.g. are aware of getting own referrals, self-managed/organized, contributions required, compliance processes, Echidna notes records, 3-hour minimum shift, etc...).

I'm happy with this. may need to apply 'Accessability Issues'. As someone who is heavily Braille reliant there are some IT & Braille friendly issues which can be a barrier. With magnification features there are some contrast issues with colour blends - difficult for a number of people with vision impairments to see diagrams etc. BUT these are things which our wonderful IT team are happy to work on. Likewise with Deaf people who need Auslan information if the english is too difficult.

Is there a way to cover 'lack of support understanding Jeder processes'? Understanding our ways and the way things operate can be tough when starting up. Maybe in the coach section?? or an induction category? Especially considering we lose most of our Neophytes in the first 12 months...

Dot point 8 should say lack "of" recognition and appreciation
I think an addition about understanding the principles of a NSO would be useful

I think the list is good. I like the idea to add one specific to not understanding or not liking in practice NSO/Jeder processes. I also liked the secondary idea of Candice's to split the reasons into "things Jeder can work on/improve" and "things out of our control" to ensure accurate turn over figures

As Alex said, understanding Jeder processes or maybe the amount of work that is needed to actively contribute to the org.

It is not for me self-manage organization. It lacks directions and clear/common objectives. There is gap between the theory and practice regarding equality. Mismatch of expectations-values-culture. Not meeting the membership expectations. Not meeting compliance.

Thanks for the question, Yvonne. The comments made may also be a contributing factor for people to stay or leave, to engage and participate or stand by. I hope it makes sense.
It is about getting the right balance and understanding about the freedom we share and the responsibilities that freedom comes with.
From my perspective it is a big shift and transition to get to about 80% + of being NSO. How we do know and assess how where each one of us is at regarding achieving that 80% + towards NSO?
After the 2022 November Gathering, I drafted the attached two loops process with hope that might assist new members to navigate the transition in becoming the NSO. Again, this is a process and not an end point.

oops - I forgot to attached the draft. Comments and feedback will take to the next level.

Thanks for clarifying Fran. I was a little confused of what you were meaning but the two loops cleared it up.

@Francisco de Paula Can you please expand on your comments, please?
