Why the Best Companies Train their Employees to Leave

Training Employees to Leave
One might think that the best companies would want to keep their employees forever, but the opposite is true. The best companies know that each of their employees has their own personal vision and motivations that might out grow their role. They also know that an employee that feels trapped in their role will be unproductive and may impact the rest of the companies operation.
Training employees with a bigger vision to be successful outside of the company makes them more valuable while they are still with the company. An employee who is well-rounded and has a variety of skills is an asset to any team. They bring new perspectives, ideas, and approaches to the company, and they are able to handle a variety of tasks and challenges.
Training employees to leave (and return) helps create a culture of continuous learning and development. When employees see that their company values their growth and development, they are more likely to feel engaged and committed to their work. This, in turn, leads to higher levels of job satisfaction and employee retention.
Counter intuitive perhaps, training people to leave both attracts and retains employees. Potential employees are more likely to join a company that is invested in their growth and development, and current employees are more likely to stay with a company that values their professional growth.
Finally, training employees to leave can help the company build a network of highly skilled individuals who can be called upon for future projects or partnerships. Existing employees can often start in new niches and return with valuable experience or become the next generation of partnerships and business lines with already existing warm relationships.
We feel, the best companies train their employees to leave because it is a smart business strategy. We help companies:
- create a compelling company vision
- coach each employee to create their own motivating vision
- align goals and growth potential whether inside the company our out.
