@thedarkhorsehq: High performers never quit over the workload. They quit over the fourth approval, the micromanaging, and getting labeled every time they say the true thing. A thoroughbred doesn’t get tired from running. Is this you? Yes or no 👇 #highperformer #burnout #toxicworkplace #worktok #leadership
the sad truth is that there are leaders out there that purposely use these tactics to drive these employees out, because they are threatened or lack the management skills to use these resources effectively.

Or they quit because higher ups won't comply with their own policies.

as a high performer I leave when my standards are disrespected 🤷 no supervisor deserves my loyalty when they can't be humble

Hi Bryan,
I believe I am a high performer. I am in a junior position excelling at my tasks. There is a managerial vacant position , higher than a supervisor. I have recently been feeling to take the risk and apply for this position. What's you take on this?

As a high performer you never negotiate your standards and you always make the room better.

Either that or they were repeatedly told you they didn’t feel like they were making the money they were worth and you ignored them so they found somewhere that would compensate them appropriately. Give me the hard work. Give me the volume of work. And when I pull off the impossible reward me for it.

I’ve been through so much change with the company I am with and I’ve worn many hats, over two decades of experience from store level to corporate office for this conpany, never quit over the workload. In the end, what will eventually get me is not being used to my fullest potential and the insight and knowledge I bring.

I love my high performers- my issue as a leader is how I get everyone else to quit complaining about my high performers. I constantly have to mediate because “they are mean”, they piss off low performing people. The okay people are the struggle, don’t want to lose them but they need to quit crying about my high performers. Any suggestions?
