2. Overworked- Something easily overlooked by management is how easy is it is to
overwork your staff. An extra few hours or a Saturday here and there won’t
hurt but everyone has a limit. Running short staffed for an extended period of
time can work but if you always run short eventually you lose the key
employees that make it work.

3. Under-appreciated– All too often employees feel under-appreciated. It’s not
necessarily that they are making too little money but that they don’t believe
management appreciates their effort. A pizza party for staff goes a long ways. An
employee of the month award can be just as good.

4. Not Being Trusted– People appreciate being trusted with special or important
tasks. Especially when it’s displayed as that they are in charge of that task. It makes
the employee special. They feel empowered and needed.

5. Credit– Give credit when credit is due. As a manager you’re responsible for putting
together a stellar team. Great job! You did it! Now give the team or the team
member the spotlight. All too often management likes to take credit but you gain far
more employee loyalty by passing it onto how great of a team you’ve built or how
well the team executed your plan.

6. Lack of Opportunity– Some people are fine with the position they have and don’t
aspire to greater things. Others are constantly moving towards the future. They
chase promotions and always look forward to the next challenge. For some if there’s
no hope of a promotion they lose initiative. This can be if a situation arises where
positions of leadership or management have recently been filled and it’s clear that
there won’t be opportunity for advancement for years. This is nearly unavoidable.
