This special episode of The Long Journey Toward Becoming an Effective Leader tackles one of the most misunderstood truths in the modern workplace: employees rarely quit organizations—they quit the leaders who shape their daily experience.
Through real-world stories, practical insights, and honest reflection, this episode explores the five core reasons people walk away from otherwise good jobs: broken trust, lack of clarity, poor recognition, limited growth, and leaders who avoid hard conversations. More importantly, it highlights what great leaders do differently—and how those differences directly impact retention, culture, and performance.
Whether you lead a team of two or an organization of thousands, this episode will challenge you, empower you, and equip you with concrete actions you can use immediately to become the kind of leader people are proud to follow.
If you care about building strong teams, creating meaningful impact, and leading with humanity, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
