AIR™ is a 90-day workforce investment system that helps healthcare, senior care, education, and other people-driven organizations measure what employee turnover, burnout, and disengagement are actually costing them. Then fix it.
Three concurrent shifts have converged for the first time in a century. Each one is documented in peer-reviewed research. Together, they form the operating environment any human-touch organization is working inside right now.
of voluntary turnover is now driven by burnout. Not pay. Not management. The cost of replacing a single bedside nurse can reach $88,000.
in unmet caregiving needs falls onto working parents and adult children every year. The result is workforce exits that almost never appear on a P&L.
in productivity is lost annually to disengagement, globally. Most organizations have an engagement score. Almost none have a financial number.
AIR translates a century of peer-reviewed research into an actionable rhythm any HR team can run. Three phases. Ninety days. Repeats every quarter.
Five anonymous workforce surveys. Five validated calculators. The diagnostic instrument HR has been missing, producing one defensible number for the C-suite.
An evidence-ranked menu of investments across financial well-being, caregiving, health, burnout, and trust. Each option scored by published ROI.
A 90-day pulse survey, a CFO-format People P&L, and decisions about what carries into Cycle 2. The operational rhythm that prevents drift.
AIR is not a subscription, a course, or a consulting engagement. It is a structured system your organization owns from day one and can run every quarter, indefinitely.
Dr. Riggs spent years in clinical practice treating patients whose pain had little to do with their spine. A nurse working back-to-back shifts. A teacher who had stopped sleeping. A skilled tradesman whose childcare had collapsed for the third time that month. They came in for the body. They left having said something about the work.
He treated the symptoms. But over time the pattern was unmistakable: the same broken organizations were producing the same broken people. The research on how to address the cause was already settled. It had been settled for decades. It just had never been organized into a system that an HR team could actually run.
AIR is the result. A 90-day operational system. Built on peer-reviewed research from Harvard, Gallup, Boston Consulting Group, and the Journal of Labor Economics. Designed for the industries where the work cannot be automated away. Owned by the organizations that license it. Repeatable every quarter.
Riggs Speaking and Consulting works with healthcare, senior care, education, skilled trades, and human-services organizations across the United States.
