The challenge

Strong people leave because of how they are managed.

  1. 01

    Your best performer resigns and the manager is surprised, though the signs were there for months.

  2. 02

    High performers are rewarded with more work but no clear path, so they find one elsewhere.

  3. 03

    One-to-ones cover tasks and deadlines, never what the person wants from their career.
