Every employer should work hard enough to ensure that their best valued employees stay in the organization.
This is why the Best Employees finally Quit
An in-depth look by Plive.co.ke discovered interesting reasons why the best employees finally quit their work place, no matter the amount of salary they could be receiving.
However, many have not learnt the trick behind maintaining the turn over as low as possible s,o that the vision of the company is carried out by those who understand it best – these are the people who have stayed in the company longer.
An in-depth look by Plive.co.ke discovered interesting reasons why the best employees finally quit their work place, no matter the amount of salary they could be receiving:
1. Bad Relationship with the Boss
You could be the reason why your employees do not stay in the company. If your employees feel that you do not provide guidance, you undermine their contribution or simply are rude to them, then certainly your relationship will be toxic.
Though there is no need to be the best of friends with your employees, it is critical to ensure that you have a good and well balanced relationship for smooth sailing.
Employees want to feel valued and as a manager this ought to be part of your skills sets to learn constantly.
2. Lack of Work and Life Balance
If an employee feels that his/her work is invading other aspects of their life, then the urge to look for a more convenient job sets in.
3. Lack of Promotions
Workers are always looking for progress in their workstations. When one finds themselves in the same place even after toiling and sweating for a company, then enthusiasm fades away and they seek other opportunities.
4. Bad Management
A management that believes in YST – yelling, screaming and threatening - sucks the life out of its employees.
No one neither wants to be reminded how they can easily be kicked out of the company nor yelled at like a toddler every time something goes wrong.
5. Money Matters
Every employer should make due diligence and ensure that their employees get paid according to the market range, so that they do not feel undervalued.
An employee will basically endure the small income until a better offer is presented to them and at that point, they will not even think twice about leaving.
After years of research and study Victor Lipman, the author of Type B Manager: Leading Successfully in a Type A World concluded that People leave mansgers not companies.
