Imagine a marriage where the two people involved do not communicate with each other or rarely do so on anything but the most task-intensive matters. Would any of us be surprised that one or both leave?
Well, some employees believe their relationship with their boss is akin to two strangers coexisting under the same roof. How do two individuals have a ‘relationship’ if they only have one meaningful conversation in an entire year and that is the annual performance review? Employees are human beings. As such, they crave, in differing degrees, contact with others, feedback about their efforts, praise when it is warranted, coaching when it is needed, etc. Noncommunicative or overtaxed bosses create a suboptimal or undesirable work environment. Why should any of us be surprised that people leave situations like this? No one likes to be ignored or unheard.

We can see the evidence of this inattention everywhere in the modern workforce. So many people are discreetly seeking a new employer and planning their exit that the term 'quiet quitting' has become part of today’s workforce vocabulary. The sheer quantity of people leaving their employers is even being described as The Great Resignation. And these trends extend beyond just
current employees. We also have a rash of ghosting, where recently hired individuals fail to show up to work.
