All of these things are an unnecessary drain on the organization. They are not unusual and they are completely solvable. In isolation none of them are catastrophic for an organization. But rarely are they found in isolation. Together they create organizational weakness that left unresolved only get worse.
Research has shown that the vast majority of employees who quit their jobs don't leave their company, they leave their boss. People might join a company for the compensation, growth opportunities, or mission, but they frequently leave because they don’t have a good relationship with their manager.
The cost of a bad manager or employee is too high to tolerate. Not only will people quit much more often, but also they’ll be much less productive before they do. Being a good leader isn’t rocket science, but it takes work. And unfortunately, a lot of managers don’t put the same dedication into the craft of leading people as they do into what they consider their “real” work.
Conversely, when employees, managers or supervisors are fired, replaced or removed, it's not usually because they lack technical expertise or know-how, nor is be just because they are “bad people”. They fail because of their lack of self-awareness and effective interpersonal skills.
