Management is as much about what you shouldn’t do as what you should. A Gallup poll revealed that one in two employees had left a job to get away from a manager and improve their overall life at some point in their career.

Short-staffed organizations don’t have enough people to handle all the work that needs to get done. When that goes on for too long, employees start taking notice and employee engagement suffers.
