The “Great Resignation” is causing waves across the workforce, but not in places you might expect. While plenty of attention has been devoted to Gen Z employees switching jobs in record numbers, new data shows the C-suite is struggling too.

Deloitte reports around 70% of high-level executives are seriously considering quitting their jobs, largely to improve their emotional well-being. In fact, these departures are already underway. According to a recent report conducted by Challenger, Gray & Christmas, over 650 CEOs left their jobs in 2022.

What’s behind this exodus of leaders?

Workers across all industries have been deeply impacted by mental health challenges, exacerbated by COVID-19, rising economic uncertainty, 40-year high inflation, and global conflict. The C-suite is no exception.

Typical media: throws out a number without context. Is 650 a lot? Is it a growing number of executives leaving over last year?

The article buried the lead.

A large proportion of C suite types are baby boomers that can retire at any time.

Some retire in place, others head for the door.

The other question is...how many of them are white males who are tired of being verbally beat to death every day.

At some point they gave the left an inch in hopes it would end, the left never stops at an inch.

I saw a commercial today with a Lexus driving down the road, then a switch to the showroom and all blacks. What is this? South Africa?

My mental health has been adversely impacted by over 90% of the jobs I have held, and by close to 95% of my clients.
Sure, I whined about it.
But I kept doing my job BECAUSE my family needed the money, and it was my duty to provide for them.

My experience was far different as an Army officer. Drilled into us was the mantra, "everything your unit does, or fails to do, is your responsibility, and yours alone."

Old fart Navy enlisted guy chiming in. Way back in the day an out going department head(LT Commander) at the time told me to lay low, his replacement was an asshole. He turned out to be correct. One of my bosses, a senior chief had a mental break down during a peace time deployment.

I turn them off or walk out almost instantly. Have no idea what they are advertising. I won’t suffer the insult of all black commercials or even the forced mixed race ones.

yeah, I’m that way.

What we’re seeing in the “workplace” today filled with younger people are the predictable results of decades of participation trophies, coddling, enabled temper tantrums and never hearing the word no from parents or schools.
