Invisible barriers to personal and career development
One common reason for employee departures, especially among ambitious individuals who are eager to learn, is limited opportunities for personal or career development. These barriers may not always be visible at first glance, yet they can still exist and negatively affect employees’ future outlook.
Mismatch between employee and company values
Don't underestimate the importance of personal values. For many employees, alignment between their own values and those of the company plays a major role in long-term loyalty. When this alignment is lacking, it can be a significant issue and a reason to leave.
Social or cultural isolation
An employee could be feeling lonely. They may not share the same values as the rest of the team, struggle to find common conversation topics, come from a very different background, or simply feel disconnected from the company culture.
Unattractive employer brand
Many people, often subconsciously, want to feel proud of where they work and what they do. If your company’s employer brand is particularly unappealing, not even high pay or flexible working arrangements will keep ambitious individuals who want to be associated with a reputable employer.
Inadequate recognition for good work
Perhaps you are not giving your subordinates enough positive feedback, especially for well-executed tasks or innovative ideas. When an employee feels undervalued, whether financially or personally, it is only a small step before they start seeking other opportunities or accept a recruiter’s offer.
