People Join Organisations And Leave Their Team Leaders

The number one reason why employees leave their jobs within the first six months is because their expectations have not been met.

If you really want to attract and retain good people, here are seven key things you need to know:
  1. ‘Good people’, people you can trust, are those who can meet your expectations and needs, but you need to be honest about what those are
  2. Only make promise in your job ads and interviews that you can and will keep.
  3. Understand the expectations and needs of the people joining your organisation. If you fail to meet them, you will break down their trust in you
  4. Make sure your managers, supervisors, team leaders understand what makes and breaks down trust, they are responsible for people staying or leaving your organisation.
  5. Remember that your marketing and branding make promises and create expectations in your existing and future employees’ minds
  6. When you build trust with your employees, managing their expectations, meeting their needs and keeping your promises, they stay
  7. When you break the trust of your employees, they leave and tell others about it, or they stay, are unproductive, and drag others down.
