  • 642 what makes employees stay
    Oct 27 2024

    We all know that employees leave bad bosses, but do they stay for good ones? In today's episode Shell and business owner Phil Thompson explore the reasons why people choose to stay or go and how leaders can support their team's career goals and personal motivators. They touch on:


    👉 how leadership is crucial – good leaders create opportunities and provide flexibility

    👉🏿 career progression matters – lack of growth can push employees to leave

    👉🏼 servant leadership – support your team's growth, even if they leave

    👉🏾 cultural alignment – leadership alone can’t retain people if the culture is off

    👉🏻 flexibility and life stage priorities – personal motivators change with life stages

    👉🏽 growth opportunities can retain employees, even if pay isn't top of the market

    👉🏿 psychological safety & the need for leaders to create a space where employees feel safe to give honest feedback

    👉 honesty about pay – transparency around pay helps build trust

    👉🏾 mutual respect and vulnerability – admitting mistakes builds trust and respect

    👉🏻 outgrowing roles – great leadership often leads to employees outgrowing their roles
