A recent article had an unfamiliar theme: great leaders actually want their high performers to move on from their company. The premise is that strong leaders recognize how to manage “the flow of talent through their organization.” They understand that it’s better to employ rockstar employees for a brief period than retain average employees forever. But are you actually pushing out your best employees without even knowing it?

Despite much talk of an ACA repeal nearing closer, penalties for 2015, 2016, 2017, and possibly 2018 would still linger for those Applicable Large Employers (ALEs) who fail to be compliant with ACA mandates. So much so, that the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has an escalating figure in the billions of dollars, predicting what employers will pay in penal

The only reliable thing about human nature is that most of us cannot reliably predict the future. When given the opportunity to make important decisions, we often guess wrong. The concept of “uncertainty” is especially challenging for recruiters and HR professionals. We spend time and energy creating candidate pools and assessment models, and we devote hours to crafting a powerful and logical selection process; however, we forget that people are, for the most part, reliably awful.

That seems like a crazy suggestion, but bear with me. Your most difficult leaders are complete a*ses. They're terrible people and they grind and use talented direct reports like commodities.
