Lack of leadership causing firms to leak talent

Four in ten British workers claim they have left a job due to their boss’ lack of leadership, according to new research.

The study, commissioned by professional training and coaching firm ZONE2, found that a worrying amount of employees have vacated a previous position entirely due to their superior’s management style.

Robin Kermode, Founder of ZONE2, spoke to HR Grapevine about the possible implications of this research, and what HR can do to help retain valuable talent.

“We all want our leaders to lead, but we want them to lead in a modern way,” explains Kermode.
