SAN FRANCISCO, April 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- A culture of trust is the key to retaining talent in the Gulf States, according to research and consulting firm, Great Place to Work.
Great Place to Work's annual study of the Gulf States' Best Workplaces reveals that employees at the top 60 Best Workplaces indicate that managers behaving in a respectful way is the most significant factor for employees to have the desire to remain in their current jobs.
In announcing the Best Companies in Asia, which includes the Gulf States, Great Place to Work CEO Michael Bush said, "Being on the list is more than being recognized as a Great Place to Work. A high-trust culture helps you attract people, improves your performance, retains your top talent, fosters innovation, and assures a sustainable business. Bottom-line, a Great Place to Work for All is better for business, because you're developing the full human potential of everyone on your team."
To help companies understand of how to improve, Great Place to Work launched the Best Workplaces in Asia Report 2017, The Importance of Trust, which includes the data from this year's regional list, and in- depth analysis on which behaviors motivate employees the most.

"Our 30 years of research shows that it is not perks and benefits that will get employees up every morning 'fired up' to go to work and contribute fully, it is the quality of the relationships that they have with their managers, peers, and job," Bush concluded.
