People join companies but they leave managers!

Posted on March 05, 2009 by Ronald T. Brown, Ph.D.

Ever wonder why people choose to come, stay or leave?

** Research by Gallup has discovered an interesting fact regarding employees and the organization in which they work:

“At Gallup, we have done some research that shows that 16% of the US Working Population is Actively Disengaged. This means that on average, 16% of the people in your company are actively working to destroy the culture you are trying to create. Another 55% are stuck in neutral (not engaged). They are waiting for someone to give them a push. Finally, 29% are really into what they are doing (Engaged). Our research has also told us that there is one major factor that makes all the difference in improving this environment - it is the manager of the workgroup. Bottom line… People join companies but they leave managers.“
- George Amgler, Gallup
