Signs of Staff Discontent
The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect, but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the objects it loves.
Carl Jung
When you are concerned that your staff are becoming unhappy at work, the Harvard Business Review article "Employee Retention: What Managers Can Do" offers these changes in behavior to watch for:
- Coming in later or leaving earlier than usual.
- Withdrawing from extra projects.
- Declining performance, or doing just enough to get by.
- Complaints, especially from people who don't usually complain.
- Wistful references to other companies.
- Nostalgic references to employees who have left.
- Talking about being 'burned out.'
