Ten Management Decisions That Drive Great Employees Away
Too many CEOs and other leaders are asleep when it comes to corporate culture.
Because culture seems like a soft and squishy topic, they don’t focus on it. They don’t pay attention to it. They pay attention to ‘hard’ things like dollars in and dollars out, and obviously these things are critical.
What too many leaders miss is that without the right culture, the dollars won’t keep flowing in the door. Good people will get disgusted and leave. Unfortunately, I have seen it happen dozens of times.
Misguided management decisions that affect employees and the working environment in general can have disastrous effects. When an organization enacts too many harsh and restrictive policies and procedures, it can destroy a corporate culture. Once your culture is broken, it is much harder to fix it than simply to avoid breaking it in the first place!
