These two actions can help mitigate the risk of staff turnover during the course of the project. By enhancing the competencies of the project team through training, mentoring, and coaching, the project manager can ensure that team members are more skilled and motivated to stay with the project. By increasing the trained staff to create back-up for resources, the project manager can ensure that there are enough resources to cover any unexpected turnover.
