Top Ten Reasons Why People Quit Their Jobs

Includes:

Management promotes someone who lacks training and/or necessary experience to supervisor, alienating staff and driving away good employees.

Management doesn’t allow the rank and file to make decisions or allow them pride of ownership. A visitor to my website E-mailed me a message that said, “Forget about the “professional” decisions—how about when you can’t even select the company’s holiday card without the President rejecting it for one of his own taste?”

I can’t help think of the Teen Librarians at ImaginOn at PLCMC who seemed so excited, empowered and happy to be working at the library!
