# Retention Management Lexikon Post – Creation Notes

**Last Updated:** 2026-03-03

## Key Decisions

- **Product mapping:** retention-management → `/arbeitszeiterfassung`, `/schichtplan`, `/abwesenheiten` (blog-product-feature-mapping.json)
- **Pillar:** Zeiterfassung, Dienstplanung; cross-link mitarbeiterbindung (first in related_posts), employee-engagement, fluktuation, onboarding, personalentwicklung-und-weiterbildung, employer-branding, fachkraeftemangel
- **Related posts:** mitarbeiterbindung first; plan order: diversity-management, workforce-management, change-management, kompetenzmanagement, wissensmanagement, abwesenheitsmanagement, personalmanagement, fehlzeitenmanagement, zeitmanagement, bewerbermanagementsystem
- **Content differentiation:** Retention Management = strategic process/system; Mitarbeiterbindung = outcome/result. H2 "Retention Management vs. Mitarbeiterbindung" with comparison table and link to mitarbeiterbindung.
- **Bidirectional link:** Added retention-management link in mitarbeiterbindung where "Retention Management" mentioned (intro and definition section)
- **Scene type:** Strategic planning office with data visualization (distinct from mitarbeiterbindung WARM OFFICE + SILHOUETTES, employee-engagement CAFE)
