I have think question come into my head recently, so I take sometime and google it, and here is some research I found.

This is not what I say, but the professional and researcher.

Every organization faces the problem of people leaving for better pay or profile.

In the pass few months, I keep hearing friends changing job. One of my friend got an offer from a prestigious international firm to work in its specialized software development. He was thrilled by the offer. The salary was great. The company had all the right systems in place employee-friendly human resources (HR) policies, a spanking new office, and very best technology and even being send aboard for training. Last month, less than four months After he joined, he walked out of the job.

Why did he leave? I think is the same reason that drives many good people away.

The answer lies in one of the largest studies undertaken by the Gallup Organization. The study surveyed over a million employees and 80,000 managers and was published in a book called “First Break All The Rules”.

It came up with this surprising finding:

If you’re losing good people, look to their immediate boss. Immediate boss is the reason people stay and thrive in an organization. And he ‘s the reason why people leave.

When people leave they take knowledge, experience and contacts with them, straight to the competition.

“People leave managers not companies,” write the authors Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman.

Mostly manager drives people away?

HR experts say all of the abuses, employees find humiliation the most intolerable. The first time, an employee may not leave, but a thought has been planted. The second time, that thought gets strengthened. The third time, he looks for another job.

When people cannot retort openly in anger, they do so by passive aggression. By digging their heels in and slowing down. By doing only what they are told to do and no more. By omitting to give the boss crucial information.

Dev says: “If you work for a jerk, you basically want to get him into trouble. You don ‘t have your heart and soul in the job.”

Different managers can stress out employees in different ways – by being too controlling, too suspicious, too pushy, too critical, but they forget that workers are not fixed assets, they are free agents. When this goes on too long, an employee will quit – often over a trivial issue.

Talented people leave. Dead wood doesn’t.
