Many career minded people leave to improve themselves and, sometimes, once they have developed, there should not be any shred of doubt to hire the best and the brightest back. Your approach is dictatorial. It is better to use an approach of deferred compensation and providing opportunities to your employees. Give the employees a golden handcuffs and they will think 10 times before leaving. If the employees know that there is not returning, they will figure out a way to game the system and then the company will be the loser. Better to not burn bridges and keep the doors open for the best and brightest. Best to come up with a system to retain them softly with deferred compensation. Dad,
