More Indians are leaving their jobs due to poor career growth rather than bad bosses

According to a new report released on Saturday, poor career advancement (41%) rather than unfavourable bosses (33%) has emerged as the main reason for employees quitting their jobs in India. According to a survey by naukri.com, 40% of Indian workers (those surveyed) look up to bosses who can inspire and mentor them to perform better, while 44% are satisfied with their current bosses.
Professionals remain in their current positions because they have the chance to advance within their companies. The results showed that employees are forced to switch jobs in the absence of a growth trajectory and a positive work environment. Poor career advancement was cited by the majority of respondents as the main reason they left, followed by an unfavourable work environment and company policies (34 per cent).

According to the survey, “over 31% of employees prefer managers who motivate them to perform better and give timely feedback.” However, it’s important to keep in mind that, according to 36% of workers, Indian managers typically use one-way communication channels (from managers to subordinates). In addition, managers who possess the capacity to foster a welcoming workplace environment act as the cherry on top. When employees were asked to vote for them on different attributes, “Male leaders are considered to be adaptive in nature,” according to the survey. In addition to this, it was added that being approachable and open-minded are the other important qualities that make males the best bosses because they are better at encouraging a healthy work-life balance and acting in a respectful manner toward their subordinates.
