> As a CEO it's really hard to understand why an employee doesn't have the same commitment. Oh lawdamercy, cry me a river. Getting a new job is a PITA, and most employees aren't going to jump without very strong reasons. 1. they got another offer to good to refuse. You should be happy for them. 2. the company does not feel financially stable. That's your fault, bubs. 3. they're being treated badly or morale has flatlined - that's definitely your fault, twinkletoes. This article is essentially telling the departing employee to bend over, for free. Good one. Here's some better advice to a CEO: 1. don't take it personally 2. give the employee an opportunity for an exit interview *with you*. Don't fob the job off onto some underling. While some departing staff will decline as they don't want to burn imaginary bridges, most passionate staff will give you an unvarnished look at the company. 3. talk to other seniors in the company and try to determine if the problem is individual or systemic.
