Every company faces the problem of people leaving the company for better pay or profile.
Early this year, Mark, a senior software designer, got an offer from a prestigious international firm to work in its India operations developing specialized software. He was thrilled by the offer.
He had heard a lot about the CEO. The salary was great. The company had all the right systems in place employee-friendly human resources (HR) policies, a spanking new office,and the very best technology,even a canteen that served superb food.
Twice Mark was sent abroad for training. “My learning curve is the sharpest it’s ever been,” he said soon after he joined.
Last week, less than eight months after he joined, Mark walked out of the job.

Why did this talented employee leave ?

Arun quit for the same reason that drives many good people away.

The answer lies in one of the largest studies undertaken by the Gallup Organization. The study surveyed over a million employees and 80,000 managers and was published in a book called “First Break All The Rules”. It came up with this surprising finding:

If you’re losing good people, look to their manager ….. manager is the reason people stay and thrive in an organization. And he ‘s the reason why people leave. When people leave they take knowledge,experience and contacts with them, straight to the competition.

“People leave managers not companies ,” write the authors Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman.

Mostly manager drives people away?

HR experts say that of all the abuses, employees find humiliation the most intolerable. The first time, an employee may not leave,but a thought has been planted. The second time, that thought gets strengthened. The third time, he looks for another job.

When people cannot retort openly in anger, they do so by passive aggression By digging their heels in and slowing down. By doing only what they are told to do and no more. By omitting to give the boss crucial information. Dev says: “If you work for a jerk, you basically want to get him into trouble. You don ‘t have your heart and soul in the job.”

Different managers can stress out employees in different ways – by being too controlling, too suspicious,too pushy, too critical, but they forget that workers are not fixed assets, they are free agents. When this goes on too long, an employee will quit – often over a trivial issue.

Talented men leave. Dead wood doesn’t.

Google+ Profile URLs looks like this: https://plus.google.com/100306056535496746387

It looks a little cluttered and not easy to remember when you want to share it with your friends, family, relatives or to anyone that you want them to know your Google+ Profile URL. So many third parties created new services that will help everyone customize Google+ URLs to be easily remembered.

See them below:

1. Gplus

Gplus.to is one of the services that will customize Google+ Profile URL. The steps are just so very easy and there’s no need for you to register on their site. Just add username you want on the nickname field and your Google+ ID on the next field and press add button to generate a new link that will redirect to your Google+ Profile URL.

2. Plus

Plus.ly is quite similar with the Gplus. All you need to do is enter your username on the first field and your Google+ ID on the next field and hit Claim my Username button to generate your customize Google+ Profile URL.

3. Glpl

It was 29th day of the month of July year of 2011. Fifth friday of the month and for TSTP employees it was not just an ordinary friday because its delubyo (Payday) day.

It’s another ND QA Lunchout and the destination is pochero haus at the back of Sarrosa Hotel. It is not just a ND QA Lunchout because we have invited our buddies at Rakrakan and HBC and glad to know that they are also excited.

Despite having enough cholesterol to make my arteries screech, I have always loved a good bowl of pochero (the Filipino version of beef stew). Highly sinful for its very fatty content and very rich in cholesterol, this very enticing dish has become a comfort food to most Filipinos.

Located at the back of Sarrosa Hotel in Mabolo, Ekit Foodhouse seemingly looks like any ordinary eatery. The signage does not exactly scream ‘Pochero!’, but the Cebuano word of mouth never fails when it comes to good food.

From the outside, it seems like an ordinary eatery, but you might be surprised what lies behind those walls.

How to get to Ekit:

If you’re coming from Ayala Center Cebu, make a left turn at the corner of Sarrosa International Hotel, then turn right, then make a left turn to Tandang Sora. You wont miss the sign, plus the uncharacteristically numerous cars parked outside

I am not sure of their store hours, but if you have plans to visit during lunch time, be sure to drop by earlier; the place tends t be crowded with Pochero lovers.
