Despite some of the delusional perspectives in the corner office, when we interview their employees, here’s what they tell us: • More than 30% believe they’ll be working elsewhere within 12 months. • More than 40% don’t respect the person they report to. • More than 50% say they have different values than their employer. • More than 60% don’t feel their career goals are aligned with the plans their employers have for them. • More than 70% don’t feel appreciated or valued by their employer.
