311. Why Good People Leave

Great people don’t leave great businesses by accident. In this conversation, we dig into what actually keeps strong relationships thriving over the long haul and where leaders unintentionally push good people out the door.

We talk candidly about what it really takes to go the distance with your team, starting with self-awareness as a leader and extending into hiring, compensation, onboarding, and retention. We break down why knowing your own strengths and gaps matters more than any personality assessment you hand to someone else, how slowing down the hiring process builds trust early, and why clarity in the first 30, 60, and 90 days can change everything.

We also unpack the role money plays in retention, from common compensation mistakes to structuring bonuses people can actually influence. Finally, we explore how relationships, recognition systems, and future vision keep people engaged and growing alongside you.

If you’re tired of constant turnover or ready to build a team that grows with you over time, this episode will give you practical steps you can put to work immediately.
