Why high performers are leaving?

What would make a high performer choose to stay for another year in here? I’m leaving as well as I feel in the past year I started to feel that I'm not running towards something amazing. I'm running away from something that has become frustrating. Very very frustrating!

@OP People rarely leave because of one bad decision. They leave when bad decisions start looking less like accidents and more like a business model. 😂

Can we trust this company to make sensible decisions over the next few years? It’s an obvious no vote from me 🫣

@OP A high performer can tolerate:
A tough manager
A heavy workload
A bad quarter
A missed promotion
But it's much harder to tolerate:
Constant reorganisations
Leadership messages that don't match reality
Decisions that seem arbitrary
Uncertainty about where the company is heading

The best people have the most options
This is the uncomfortable truth.
Average performers ( like the rest of us 😅) often stay because changing jobs is risky.
High performers leave because recruiters competitors and customers already know who they are.
When frustration reaches a threshold they have somewhere to go. The rest of have to su-k up to our manager to survive this!

@OP Loss of trust in leadership, Too much change, not enough stability.
