Abstract
The aim and value added contribution of this article is threefold. Firstly, it can potentially raise awareness among board members, directors and managers regarding the importance of both attracting and retaining employees as a resource to create and maintain a competitive advantage and sustainable organisational development. Secondly, it provides insight into the perspectives of a group of employees from Australia and South Africa (as one example) regarding both the attraction and retention factors they valued. Thirdly, it provides a summary of how these insights could be used to develop strategies to increase both the attraction and retention of employees within an effective Corporate Governance (CG) and sustainable organisational development framework.
