Lack of respect (mutual, i.e. manager does not respect employee and/or vice versa) 3. Lack of clarity about expectations 4. Lack of feedback about performance 5. Lack of effective and regular communication 6. Lack of a good fit for employee’s skill and talent. Manager mis-hired. 7. Lack of feeling valued 8. Lack of recognition 9.
