Dissatisfied employees - those who complain about and berate the firm, its managers, its direction or vision, or any number of other company complaints - are damaging to the organization’s prospects for healthy growth and sustainability, both in the short and long term. And while you won’t find ‘employee happiness’ in a business plan under ‘corporate objectives’ – maybe you should – as an ever-evolving global workforce becomes even more transitory. People leave their jobs for a variety of reasons, but contrary to what many believe to be the usual ones -  departing for more money, benefits or advancement; the main reason people quit is due to unsatisfying work relationships. According to management specialist and author Victor Lipman in his Forbes.com article, ‘[Why Do Employees Leave Their Jobs? New Survey Offers Answers](http://www.forbes.com/sites/victorlipman/2015/10/10/why-do-employees-leave-their-jobs-new-survey-offers-answers/#54435b456a90),' "People leave managers, not companies. When management is persistently over-involved in unproductive ways, it can quickly become a retention issue." In the [Tinypulse Employee Engagement Report](https://news.tinypulse.com/lt-employee-retention-report-82043/) – a survey (referenced above) of 400 full-time employees across the US – several factors explained what keeps employees happy and ‘in their seats’ versus what makes them depart ‘for greener pastures.’  Summarized findings by reporter Laura Troyani include: - Supervisors can make or break employee retention – with a clear relationship between freedom to make decisions and happiness - Colleagues Have a Lot of Power - Great peers can make or break an employee’s work experience and can be the difference between staying on board and looking for a new job - Culture Matters a Lot - a healthy workplace environment where employee's feel a sense of belonging and that they ‘fit in’ impacts their likelihood to stay - Don’t Forget Rest and Relaxation - Employees that are tired and burnt out are 31% more likely to think about looking for a new job - Your Team Wants to Grow or They’ll Leave - Employees that reported having access to professional development opportunities were more than 10% more likely to stay with their current employer - making these not just a nice-to-have - they are a need-to-have So establishing and maintaining a happy and productive workforce is obviously good for a company’s success. And while raises and other monetary incentives are part of the package – in terms of overall employee satisfaction, and the desire to stay with a firm, the ‘people factors’ weigh much more heavily. That’s why employers need to care; challenging their employees intellectually and engaging their creativity – making them want to stay.
