The most common reason employees give for quitting their last job is that their manager didn't care about them. 70% of top performers who leave their jobs point to a breakdown in a relationship.
Those employees aren’t your strugglers, or even your run-of-the-mill, average players. They are your top performers—those who you worked so hard to recruit, invested time in training and coaching, and who lead to the biggest growth in your organization.
Even though they may want to advance their careers, earn a living, support their families, and contribute to society – if an individual does not believe they can trust their manager to have their best interests at heart, they usually can’t keep doing the job.
