Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
A recent Gallup poll1 found that 42 percent of employees who voluntarily left their organizations reported that their manager or organization could have done something to prevent them from leaving. Follow-up research found that managers could have made a difference if they had engaged employees in discussions about their job satisfaction, performance, or future with the organization.
Managers can’t always solve employee issues, but engaging with employees is critical to employees’ job satisfaction.
1 Peter 4:10 says: “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace…”
As leaders, we serve both our teams and our broader organizations when we use our gifts to invest in the people we lead.
