Counseling
(Sample Retention Now Presentation)

Counseling keeps careers on track, boosts morale, and builds faith in the Guard family.

Whether regularly scheduled as part of performance evaluation, or quickly arranged in response to specific Soldier needs, individual counseling sessions:
  • Provide Soldiers with plans that encourage them to excel within the Guard
  • Enable leaders to address individual Soldier concerns that might obscure mission focus
Leaders learn an effective counseling approach in four straightforward steps:
  1. Identify Soldiers who can benefit from counseling
  2. Motivate Soldiers to attend and make the most of their counseling sessions.
  3. Conduct sessions that give Soldiers the guidance they need to succeed.
  4. Follow up with Soldiers to ensure that they are putting their career-development strategies into action.
