Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Assigning young managers initially to demanding supervisors can increase their retention rate by providing a challenging yet supportive environment that fosters growth and development. Demanding supervisors can provide guidance, feedback, and opportunities for stretching beyond their current abilities, while still providing the necessary support to ensure their success. This can lead to a sense of accomplishment and personal growth, which can motivate young managers to stay with the organization. Hands off or less demanding supervisors may not provide enough support or challenge, while autocratic supervisors may create a hostile work environment, both of which can lead to lower retention rates.
