Simple Ways to Recognize Emerging Leaders At Your Startup And How To Help Their Development

Growing your team and your company also means growing your future leaders.

Gallup discovered that the number one reason people change jobs today is career growth and opportunities. And that reason is still trending upwards.

Gallup’s research found that 59% of millennials say opportunities to learn and grow are extremely important to them when they apply for a job.

Comparatively, 44% of Gen Xers and 41% of baby boomers say the same thing.

87% of millennials rate "professional or career growth and development opportunities" as important to them in a job, far more than the 69% of non-millennials who say the same.

There's a significant statistical difference here. It's something we need to pay attention to.

Are we helping our team develop and grow?

When Gallup asked people across generations why they left their last job, the most common words they used were "growth" and "opportunity." And 91% of U.S. workers say the last time they switched jobs, they left their company to do so.

This is why you, as a manager, need to become a coach because helping your employees grow is essential to creating a high-performance culture.

Part of being a coach is identifying and recognizing emerging leaders at your startup.
