Why employees switch jobs so often?

Changing jobs regularly is a good thing, right? It’s a sign of ambition and drive, an indication that you want to improve your skills and experience. Or is it a sign of an inability to commit to a role, of someone who struggles to settle? If you are thinking about making a career move, you might want to consider what a frequent variation in direction might say about you.

Many things prompt us to want to change employers – some are out of our power, so in an effort to retake control of our lives, we place ourselves on the job market and some of us do it more often than others!

So, how often is too often? With social media seeming to constantly announce new roles for our friends and acquaintances, it might appear that nowadays, people job hop more often now than ever before.

I feel when the employee is not happy he or she looks for a change as per me these things can be done to retain their employees;

1.  Give your employees development and advancement opportunities: When you help people to grow and develop, the outcome is excellent. Good leaders ensure that the workplace keeps people advancing people into new career paths and those they're experiencing new roles and responsibilities. When employees grow, their productive capacity increases. When their productive capacity increases, the capacity of the organization increases. It's a thing of beauty which very few employers understand.

2.  Give your employees self-sufficiency: "Leadership is the art of giving people a platform for spreading ideas that work." What that means is people in charge of people must empower them to think on their own. After hiring the right people with the right skills for the job, and setting clear goals and expectations with deadlines and benchmarks, the next and highest priority is to give your people entrepreneurial rights; let them make decisions and own their work, and let them determine how to move forward. In other words, let them use their God-given brains! As you provide your clan with more independence, you'll notice an increase in inherent motivation, trust, and loyalty to the company. Another thing of beauty.

3.  Create a feedback culture: Let’s face it most managers don't like giving or accepting feedback. It's painful because you have to speak the truth, and plenty of people aren't ready to accept it. The culture of feedback in any organization helps everyone get and perform better and know there drawbacks which can be worked upon and things are constantly improving.

In simple words I would put it this way when you help others to do their jobs and set them up for success by implementing all of the above, you the leader will set yourself up for success. That's the ultimate thing of beauty.
