You are currently serving as a warden in a maximum security prison. An officer who has been working in your prison for approximately five years comes to your office one day and informs your that they are thinking of leaving their position, and considering applying for positions outside of the profession. This officer does a good job and is well liked by both line staff an command staff. This officer feels as though their career is not progressing as fast as would be liked.

What might you say to this officer? What would you do to try to persuade the officer to stay with the facility? Would you attempt to determine if there were underlying issues causing this officer to leave the position? please explain in detail. Thank you for your time!
