In this episode of Ask Christina First, we focus on why employees leave. Now you may have a ton of ideas, however the one that stands out the most is how employees feel about their boss or person in charge. If you're the boss/lmanager, how you interact and engage with your employees determines if they want to actually be there or not. Taking an article from the LA Times, Christina shifts through each reason why employees leave their employers. The first two categories listed are people want to move on to a new job or the relationship with their boss or management is unpleasant. Both of those categories alone make up 47% of the poll making those two reasons the highest. Christina, however finds solutions for both employee and employer. This can boil down to how do you handle relationships with your employees? Do you hire the right people for the job? Can you relate to them in any way? Can you manage them within the culture of the company? Do you know how to work with your employees? Asking these questions will help the employer find the right employees. There however will always need to be boundaries in place so that the work always comes first. An employer and employee should maintain a healthy work balance within the workplace without it ever getting too personal.

In this episode you will learn:

Why employees eventually leave their jobs?

Why management and employer should maintain an atmosphere that employees enjoy coming to everyday.

How to keep all parties happy while also keeping the business productive.


Here are a few steps from the LA Times article Christina uses as a reference in this show:

1. To gain respect from your employees, know the business and the individual's job. Employees respect managers who know what they're doing.

2. Acknowledge their work and have an honest respect for their work. Offer up praise and inquire about what they learned in the process. This shows an interest in their growth and work and affirms the hard work they've put in to succeeding.

3. Have an open door policy and when you can, actually leave the door open. Eliminate the physical barrier between the boss and the employee and let it be clear that you are available. There are times when you need to close your door, but whenever possible, leave the door open to ensure employees know you are interested and want to help.
