Employees are often referred to as the glue that holds an organization together. What, then, are managers? They certainly play a critical role, but when they are not positioned to succeed or properly trained, they can be party to a whole slew of issues within their organization. The poor habits of managers can lead to loss of employees, reductions in employee engagement, and real financial loss as well. Conversely, great managers that understand the goals and aspirations of their employees can drive great success in each of those areas.

Today I discuss this issue with HR analyst, author, and fellow podcaster, Ben Eubanks (https://upstarthr.com/about/). Ben is the Chief Research Officer at Lighthouse Research & Advisory. He helps companies and vendors with strategy, content, and more. He has worked as an influencer and analyst for more than 10 years, 7 of which he did in an independent capacity.
