What is more motivating and beautiful than good vibes, mutual admiration and respect between bosses and employees? When there is a good atmosphere in an organization, each person goes to work with much more energy, with a greater desire to take action and with more reasons to give the best of themselves. What can we do to make our organization flow with positive energy and prevent talented people from leaving?
According to A study by Kronos and Future Workplace, Burnout is responsible for 20-50% of the job turnover rate each year.
According to Michelle Grose, a digital marketing specialist, one of the main reasons why an employee leaves their job is due to a bad relationship with their boss. The good news is that it is a problem that every organization can solve and avoid. We are going to show you how:
-
Assess the managers in your organization. Performance evaluations are for everyone. By evaluating managers we can get to know their point of view, discover the strengths that they may be wasting in a department that does not correspond to them.
-
Assess candidates for a position by competencies. Job interviews are quite hard, for the candidate it is a process with a lot of nerves and for the recruiter it is a dense task in which they have to be alert so that they do not miss his ideal candidate. Give candidates an evaluation by skills or values, it is an incredible experience for the candidate, your employer branding and the recruiter rise like foam, in addition to having the candidate's CV, has a skills report and even the candidate's own vision through your self-assessment.
-
Gives training and promotes internal promotion. The more we encourage development, the better our team will feel. By training our workers, we show them that we want them to grow in their job or to improve so that they feel more confident in the face of a promotion. Consequences? In addition to much better prepared employees, you generate commitment in gushes. If, in addition, we train our employees for positions that they do not yet occupy, we will make them feel valued and we will have a staff prepared in case of promotion or rotation.

Get into “Los Pecos mode”. No, I don't know, you haven't gone too far, what we want to say is that you talk to your employees (tell them about yourself, about loneliness, if you've talked to them, or you don't like them, tell them about yourself...). Get to know your team and let them get to know you. Communication is essential in any type of organization. Start by sharing the objectives and goals, show interest in their life beyond work (in an appropriate and respectful context) and give them complete confidence so that the feedback is reciprocal. They will understand the company better and feel more identified so that the goals are also their goals. Of course, you should also listen.
With these 4 tips you already have enough to get down to work, right? But if you are thinking of that type of Boss that carries the Grinch inside, don't worry, we also present 3 reasons that will convince you of the benefits that applying the above tips will have for the organization. Now, we know, we're about to throw it away, gentlemen!

Increase productivity. When employees know why they do what they do and the consequences of their good work on customers or on the organization's profits, they work more efficiently because they are infinitely more motivated (you see, and you only had to talk!) . Do not simply assign tasks, make each team member aware of their responsibilities.
-
Avoid brain drain. Whatever the generation to which we belong, we all want to stay in jobs where we feel we fit in, where there is an opportunity for professional and even personal growth. Where is better than at home? The fact that a good employee leaves means that you have lost a great talent, you have lost employer branding and you are going to waste time and money having to find someone new for the position.

Hmm, do you smell that? It's a good work environment! If there is good vibes in your team, there will be more predisposition to help each other and that means that if someone gets stuck with a task, they will have a partner to help them along and there will be no pending tasks or wasted time.
Have we already convinced you that your organization is wonderful, so wonderful that even unicorns will graze on it? If you apply these tips you can delete the word Burnout from your corporate dictionary; -)
