We've seen it countless times on fire alarms and panic buttons: Break glass in case of emergency. (The example above is from a San Francisco BART station.) It's a fitting figure of speech for a theme in my practice: When a client feels that their company's established processes are too slow or that employees are addressing a situation with insufficient urgency, they "break glass" and intervene to bypass those processes, generate the requisite urgency, and ensure that the issue is resolved now.

A S our recent history has shown us, disruption does not happen linearly. We can’t expect change to be an extension or an improvement on what we already know. As Terence Mauri puts it in The Upside of Disruption , we must rethink everything. “We can’t have resilient leadership without deliberate and sustained rethinking.” We become irrelevant, trapped in our past successes.

The Great Resignation has led to the Great Stay. But people still leave, and that has a lot to do with how they’re led. People aren’t quitting like they used to. According to a report released earlier this month from iHire , we are now in the midst of the Great Stay, the follow-up to the Great Resignation: Last year, approximately 38 percent of U.S. workers said they voluntarily left a job in the past year, a drop from about 43 percent in 2023.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

Retaining top talent is crucial for any organization’s success. However, even the most skilled and dedicated employees can become disillusioned if their leaders exhibit certain detrimental habits. While many leaders focus on attracting top performers, it’s equally important to recognize the behaviors that can drive them away. Understanding these leadership pitfalls is essential for fostering a thriving workplace where top talent can excel and feel valued.
