The U.S. Department of Labor reports that over 200,000 Americans left their jobs in May 2018. The rate of voluntary quits \u2013 people leaving jobs of their own volition \u2013 is 2.4 percent, the highest rate since April 2001. Not many who want to work are out of work. The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bls.gov\/opub\/ted\/2018\/unemployment-rate-rose-to-4-point-0-percent-in-june-2018.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">U.S. unemployment rate<\/a>\u00a0in May 2018 was 3.8 percent \u2013 a 10-year low \u2013 and rose by 0.2 percent in June.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"marker\">An improving economy and consumer optimism translate into employee transitions. Many Americans are not only looking for new jobs, but they\u2019re leaving their old jobs because they\u2019re finding them.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"marker\">Are they leaving for more money? It doesn\u2019t seem to be the primary driver. Research by TinyPulse found that 77 percent of employees do not feel strongly valued at work, and in a 2017 study, Globoforce found that the strongest factors in creating a positive employee experience are meaningful work (27 percent), empowerment and voice (17 percent), and feedback and recognition (16 percent). The greatest influence on these factors is the employees\u2019 direct boss. And most bosses aren\u2019t having positive impact on these factors \u2013 they\u2019re having a negative impact on them.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"marker\">Leaders who see their role just as \u201cgetting results\u201d are unlikely to frequently offer employees praise and encouragement, authentic listening, or credit or to celebrate efforts as well as accomplishments. Yet the best bosses do these things daily.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"marker\">To get your leaders out of the \u201ccommand and control\u201d mindset, do these<strong>\u00a0three<\/strong>\u00a0things:<\/span><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"marker\">Educate them on the powerful benefits of a work environment built on trust, respect and validation<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"marker\">Provide them with undeniable data about the impact of their leader behaviors today<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"marker\">Provide training in human relationship skills like mentoring, coaching, listening, validating and, yes, even praising<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div><span class=\"marker\">Offering the training without the education (the context) of why such skills are critically important and without the data (their leadership impact today) won\u2019t inspire leaders to put those skills into action daily.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"marker\">The surveys cited earlier can provide a global context to educate your leaders. Data from your own work environment \u2013 retention rates, engagement scores, etc. \u2013 will be more powerful than data from other organizations. Use an instrument like a 180-degree survey that scores leaders\u2019 impact in areas like constructive styles, passive-defensive styles and aggressive-defensive styles. The leader\u2019s self-scores indicate their intentions, and feedback from their direct and indirect reports indicate the perceptions of others. If a leader\u2019s impact is more defensive than constructive, it is unlikely that they\u2019re building positive relationships \u2013 they\u2019re probably eroding them.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"marker\">One old-school senior leader took a while to understand and evolve his leadership style. About a year into executive coaching, he said, \u201cI had an epiphany this week. I used to see my job as managing processes and results. Now, I see my job as managing people\u2019s energy.\u201d<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span class=\"marker\">Leaders can evolve. They can learn new ways of interacting \u2013 ways that improve relationships and validate others\u2019 efforts. That\u2019s how you\u2019ll retain and attract talented, engaged employees to your company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\nAspired to become the best leader you could be?
