Firing employees for job hunting is a mistake on so many levels.
1. It signals insecurity about your culture and why anyone should want to work there. (We can't keep people here except under threat.)
2. It's ineffective against your best employees, who will have options and will not fear you.
3. It demotivates everyone and creates a vicious cycle of fear and distrust, which will drive a culture of keeping your head down and hoarding information, which will destroy the efficiency of your remaining workforce.
- bernawil 6y agoIt signals insecurity about your culture and why anyone should want to work there. (We can't keep people here except under threat.) well, unless you're paying top dollar you can be sure people are working at your place until they can get a job at a place that does. It's ineffective against your best employees, who will have options and will not fear you. again, if your place isn't on top of everyone's preference list it's futile to hold onto your best perforers. Better to embrace it will be a revolving door.
