How Companies Lose Their Best People
Companies claim they want the best talent, but when they have rockstar employees, they force them to fit the status quo instead of letting them shine. Meanwhile, the wrong people—performative leaders, office "Karens," and gatekeepers—get promoted while true innovators are ignored. These companies don’t just lose great employees; they create their own competition. An empire isn’t built by controlling workers—it’s built when people take pride in what they’ve built. If companies don’t start recognizing real talent, someone else will.
