We’ve all seen the ‘employees don’t leave bad jobs, they leave bad bosses‘ quotes that are often doing the rounds. Although it seems a bit of a cliché, research of exit interviews has shown that poor management is often the root cause of departure.
In addition to high staff turnover, poor management can also result in an increase in a range of employee related issues including;
Disciplinaries
Grievances
Staff absences
Low engagement
Performance issues… to name just a few!
Disgruntled employees are also more likely to leave bad reviews on Glassdoor, potentially reducing the pool of talent applying for any vacant roles you have.
