Like it or not, there's some truth behind when the employees leave their bosses and not their jobs. If you want to keep the most talented members of your team, it's time you realise that the reason why the cream of the crop leaves -is sometimes you.
Your team is overworking and underpaid
You once enjoyed bossing over a staff of 50, and today it's half the number. The show must go on.
But for how long? While you may whip them to get the same amount of work done with half the numbers, realise that they're indeed shouldering more responsibility than they can handle. Your second best bet -until you find suitable replacements, that is -to figure who's doing what in your team and probably redistribute how work is getting done. Your best people need to be doing higher-level stuff, not just slogging out the routine job (that can be carried out by an intern).
The brightest members in your team will leave if they are doing the same boring job year after year (and now with additional boring work).
You constantly nitpick
Being a perfectionist is a quality many dynamic bosses share. But in their bid to get the team to achieve their standards, they end up micro-managing and get into the details of the details. This frustrates employees to no end. Having your fingers on the pulse of what's going on (or not going on) in your group is good management.
However, don't test your employees' patience.
You're always absent
While the nitpicking nags aren't appreciated, neither are the bosses who make guest appearances. If you give an employee a task, and come back with feedback a fortnight later (unless required), then you're certainly dancing on your team's last nerve
You have favourites
The biggest problems arise even in the smallest organisations when bosses promote folks on the basis of whom they like, instead of who deserves to up the ladder based on merit. If you're out of touch with who's really talented in your team, do your organisation a favour and try to recognise those guys.
You don't give direction
Your primary concern as a person at the helm of things is to get your work done. But in the process, don't transform your amazingly gifted team into a bunch of headless chickens. Your staff (as much as they love their job) can't go about churning without any direction. If this goes on for too long, then frustration creeps in and they ultimately call it quits. So take time out to hear their concerns and give them feedback on how they can improve.
You aren't caring
You're definitely at the top of the corporate hierarchy. But boss, don't get too caught up in your vanity. You may give the team the impression that you care more about yourself. Show interest in your team's work progress, or else you'll see them scuttle off to a work environment where they feel more cared for.
You are whimsical
Some bosses like to work with a plan and others prefer to be guided by their gut. But be sure that this doesn't mess up the team's schedule.
Don't say `x' one day and `y' the other.
As a boss, you've got to tell the group which route they are going down, how, when and why. If not, then your whimsical ways will get them thinking of the job they'd like to find.
