Last night, our company's team building, the marketing department Lao Liu revealed to me a surprising news: a little girl in his department plans to submit her resignation after the New Year. This news shocked me a lot, because in my impression of the employee, she has always been very curly, and she leaves work every day.
When she came to our company for an interview, I also participated, and she gave me the impression that she was full of enthusiasm and would work until retirement. It stands to reason that her development in the new company should be smooth sailing, but why did she suddenly make such a decision? What is the reason why a good employee suddenly starts to rot? It is none other than the following 5 reasons.
1. Encounter bottlenecks in the workplace and seek new breakthroughs.
Good employees are usually the kind of people who know what to expect. They always have a clear plan for their career development, and they know what they want and where they should go. However, sometimes they will hit such a wall in their own position, and they feel that no matter how hard they try, they can't go up, as if they have hit the ceiling.
If you think about an employee who usually performs well, and suddenly he starts to "mess up", his superiors will definitely find it strange and will pay attention to him and understand what is going on with him. In this way, these employees will have the opportunity to communicate their ideas and needs with their superiors, and maybe they will get more challenges and opportunities as a result. So they're just a strategy, a special way of expressing their needs and desires.
Second, the work pressure is too high, and emotions need to be released.
My current work is sometimes really like a mountain overhead, which makes people breathless. Even the best employees can feel overwhelmed in this high-intensity work environment. Do you know that some people will choose to "put it badly", just like when we were tired of writing homework when we were children, we wanted to be lazy.
At times like these, they may prefer someone who understands them and cares about them rather than blaming and criticizing. Think about it, if you are too tired to work, do you want to hear people say, "Why don't you work so hard", or do you want to hear "You have worked hard and need to take a break"?
3. Changes in personal life affect work performance.
Changes in an employee's personal life, such as family issues, health conditions, etc., can have a significant impact on their job performance. These changes may lead to their inability to devote themselves to their work, and even the phenomenon of "rotten". As a colleague or superior, it's crucial to give them enough support and understanding at this time.
Fourth, interpersonal tension in the workplace leads to negative work.
Improper handling of interpersonal relationships in the workplace often becomes a trigger for employees to be negative at work. When employees feel excluded and suppressed by their colleagues or superiors, they may choose to "put it on the strain" in response. In this case, timely communication and conflict resolution are the key to solving the problem.
5. Lose interest in the work and seek new challenges.
It is also possible that employees have lost interest in their current job and are eager to try new challenges and areas. In this case, "swinging" may be their way of expressing dissatisfaction and seeking change. In order to avoid the waste and loss of talents, superiors should pay attention to the interests and needs of employees in a timely manner and provide them with more development opportunities.
In addition to the above five reasons, there are some other factors that can also cause good employees to suddenly "swing out". For example, changes in the company's management, deterioration of the working environment, etc. These factors may have a direct or indirect impact on the working status of employees.
Finally, we need to pay attention to the professional development and personal growth of our employees. Only when employees feel that they have enough room and opportunities for development in the company will they be more actively engaged in their work.
It's not an unsolvable mystery that good employees suddenly "rot". As long as we carefully understand the reasons behind the first and take positive measures to deal with and solve the problem, we will be able to help employees regain their state and create a better future in the workplace together.
