LESSON 4: Give A Fuck.
- ask about your employees& #39; personal lives... talk non-work stuff for 10-15+ min
- give em a small bonus if they have money issues
- help them reach their life & career goals
- bond... monthly game night etc
They& #39;ll be more loyal & honest with you

LESSON 5: Don& #39;t Get Too Attached.
When an employee gets a better job offer
They& #39;re leaving
They don& #39;t care about you
They don& #39;t care about your company
Expect & prepare

If you feel like something is off, it is
100% of the time
If you think your employee is about to quit
They& #39;re gonna quit
If you think they& #39;re slacking off
That& #39;s also true
Let your intuition guide you
