People don't quit jobs. They quit bosses.

 

Count the number of times you left a job. What's the percentage where the boss was a major factor? When I looked back at my past jobs, I realised that percentage is quite high. The boss you have determines your daily work life, your learning opportunities, your career growth, whether you're happy at work.

Here's a more optimistic way to look at it. People stay because of the boss too. Are you a leader people will stay for?

Being a leader people want to follow is learnable. It is a choice.
