@johntmeyer: If management is the reason your best employees quit, you’ve got some big fish to fry…

Macy89 :

Try favoritism that will kill morale, and that will kill your workflow

beanmheiriceanach :

Micromanaging is THE WORST!!! And it’s rampant in retail.

ReadingwithLori📚 :

im convinced my husband's manager gave him PTSD, he was awful.

Dex Anderson :

Part of the flip side of “hey how can I help” is actually following through on that help, though. It also can cost good employees if you ask to help and then do nothing.

Franco :

They used to treat me like a stupid naughty child

CopyKat93 :

I will genuinely stay at my company for years as long as my manager stays in his role. Absolute legend

Lala in LA :

100% management a lot of people don’t know how to manage and screw up the whole system I manage with How can I help you? What do you need?

ttbannedme2511 :

bout every manager ive ever dealt with

LD :

Oh yea true 100%

Bobby❌🏁 :

Yep, I left jobs because of this.

Carin Gaming :

But for some reason the suck ups is who get the ladder.

monaespeaksreset :

I’m glad someone finally speaking on it

SOGOL :

I asked my boss to involve me in more projects and give me more tasks to do and she told me I am just a soldier and don’t need to know anything or asking for more! Whenever she needed me I had to be available otherwise I just had the permission to JUST exist!

NoShade Luxury Eyewear :

He said it not me

gopedjane :

yup I left a decent job and company because of the manager they hired, he made it like I didn't do anything, and would say he has no visibility into what I was working on when he was on all meetings and then begged me to stay longer when I resigned

DOUG :

control is mistress 🤔

🇬🇧Gadgetman :

staceyyannn :

DANIELLE AT RIGHT AT SCHOOL

Rey J :

the best manager i worked for gave me minimal directions then trusted me to do my job.

R G :

I asked for another employee they said no because of payroll. Then manager mage us do things slower. I said i applied to a new job. I left they ended up working 12 hours a day and hired 4 more employees 😂 and this was a company that is known for taking care of the employees

Dick :

3 keys to management, give the autonomy , define clear guardrails and have regular eg monthly one on ones . It’s not hard

VIS REYNOSO :

yes ppl quit on the management .

ToddTalksAboutItAll :

My former idiot manager literally made it her goal to make sure that I ended every single email to everyone, with: You’re the best!! 😃 (Has to be two exclamation points and a smiley face emoji) otherwise my emails were considered ‘mean’ by her and supposedly every recipient 🙄

brey_niemann🍉 :

We had designated business owners (DBO) at Target before I left during the pandemic. My executive team lead (ETL) was furious I allowed my grocery DBO to reconstruct her backroom area to make her pulls more efficient. I trusted my DBO that she knew her business best. They still have the backroom set that way. My entire team walked away within 6 months of me leaving.
