Most leaders think they have a people problem. They don’t. They often have a mirror problem.
After 30+ years in HR, I can tell you this:
The businesses or departments struggling most with turnover, attitude, and performance almost always have the same root cause…
👉 A manager who hasn’t looked inward yet.
Before rewriting policies or replacing employees, ask: “Am I the problem?”
If that question makes you uncomfortable — good. That’s where real leadership starts.
