The Real Reasons Employees Quit — and How to Retain Them

Unwelcome employee turnover can create big problems for managers,
teams, and organizations, so it's important to understand the real
drivers of attrition. New research from Ethan Bernstein, associate
professor at Harvard Business School, and Michael Horn, cofounder
of the Clayton Christensen Institute, points to a host of push and
pull forces that cause workers to jump ship and also outlines
better retention strategies. They are the coauthors, along with Bob
Moesta, of the HBR article "Why Employees Quit" and the book Job
Moves: 9 Steps for Making Progress in Your Career.
