 Leadership plays a decisive role in addressing the challenges of employee turnover and the ongoing effects of the Great Resignation. Employees often leave organizations not just because of compensation, but because of poor management, lack of growth opportunities, and cultures that fail to support well-being and inclusion. Effective leaders counter this by fostering trust, recognizing contributions, and creating clear career development pathways. They practice open communication, model work-life balance, and build environments where employees feel valued and connected to a larger purpose. By prioritizing engagement, growth, and fairness, leadership reduces the push factors driving attrition and strengthens the pull factors that encourage employees to stay. In doing so, leaders transform retention from a short-term tactic into a long-term strategy for organizational stability and resilience.
