I have spoken with a number of employees (especially Gen Y) in different industries about why they dislike or have already left their workplace. The cliche phrase has a lot of truth, “Employees rarely leave companies, but they frequently leave managers.”
If you will follow the items below, you are well on your way to running off a good employee:
- do not encourage them
- do not care about them and their family
- do not equip them
- do not provide them resources
- do not place them in their sweet spot
- do not have a vision for them to understand and to follow
- do not operate in your area of strength
- do not create a team environment with their colleagues
- do not allow their creativity to flourish
- do not match your talk and walk
- do not be consistent in your follow through
What items would you add to the list?
