Another important aspect about retaining good employees is to help them through their failures. The longer an employee stays at a company, the more likely it is that they will screw up. No one has a 100% track record. Good management teams recognize this, and should have plans to guide faltering employees back on the right track.
- reledi 13y agoFailures should be seen as opportunities for improvement, not as opportunities for blame. A good way to start is by having teams accept responsibility for failures, not a single employee. For example, if someone accidentally deleted a production database and there's no backup, they didn't screw up, the team screwed up for not having backups and for encouraging working in production.
