Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Managers should anticipate high-performers leaving their team and should have a succession plan in place. Their goal should be to help these employees grow, even if that means they eventually outgrow their current roles. This mindset can help create a positive culture where people feel supported and empowered. Managers should maintain an open dialogue about career aspirations with their team members, help them develop a roadmap to achieve their goals, and build a strong pipeline of talent to ensure continuity when someone leaves.
