5 Reasons Why Good Employees Quit and Leave your Organization

2021-03-15T07:50:59-05:00

Few things are more discouraging for leaders than when they find out a good employee is quitting—especially when they discover that person is going to work for their competition!     When this happens, too many leaders and organizations allow themselves to believe employees go because they are offered better benefits or pay; however, this is rarely the case.  Multiple studies on why employees leave their jobs have proven that most do not quit for more pay or better benefits.  Still, too many accept this belief and thus continue to see their best employees exit their organization.    Though pay and benefits [...]

Company Culture Made Simple

2020-02-21T11:53:45-06:00

Establishing a strong company culture can be remarkably simple.  A great culture first starts with creating clarity. When things are clear, it aligns and unifies a team. In essence, it gets everyone rowing in the same direction. Second, a strong culture requires consistency. Consistent practices and predictable patterns of behavior, routines, and systems build trust and cohesion.  Next, adding celebration strengthens a culture. When teams are recognized for their efforts frequently and when they are able to bond together through consistent moments of celebration, it creates a sense of pride and belonging.  Finally, showing charity or helping people [...]

Breakfast Pizza and Influential Leadership

2020-02-14T10:34:49-06:00

At a recent conference I presented at, an experienced executive shared an interesting story with me about the most influential boss he’d ever had. When this boss first joined the company, the team was fragmented and performance was poor. Recognizing this, one of the first things the new boss did was require that the entire leadership team have breakfast together every Friday morning. For whatever reason, the inevitable food of choice was always breakfast pizza.   Though there was a lot of grumbling and push back, this new leader would not relent. So, every Friday morning at 8am the [...]

Lead Like a Champion

With the Super Bowl fast approaching, great coaching has been on my mind.

Accountability or Kindness?

2019-10-14T13:33:46-05:00

As a leader, which do you choose: accountability or kindness? Which of the two is more important and which will best get you the results you desire? Unfortunately, too many leaders face this decision on a regular basis. They tell themselves they must choose one or the other. The reality is a leader can do both. In fact, a leader should do both. Holding people accountable does not mean being unkind just as being kind does not mean you don’t hold people accountable. The two are completely unrelated. A leader can take any action with kindness or without [...]
