The Real Reasons People Quit

Bonnie Low-Kramen • TEDxRutgersCamden

There’s much more to quitting a job than what is written in a letter of resignation or spoken aloud at exit interviews. There can be serious and long-lasting trauma and mental health issues. Staff and company leaders alike all pay a very high price when people quit. Based on her work in 14 countries, workplace expert Bonnie Low-Kramen exposes the real reasons behind what is chasing staff away and the top four things that motivates them to stay. Spoiler Alert: Money is number three.
