Track your Employee Turnover

Do you have the same team you originally started with? Saying "no" to that question isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially if your lineup has changed. In addition, startups are notoriously volatile, and young workers are especially prone to making frequent career jumps.

However, if you find that your employees are consistently leaving after only a limited time on the job, that's a bad sign for the future of your company. It could be that these jobs are too confusing or demanding, that there aren’t any areas for development, that the inner workings of the company don’t meet expectations -- or that those departing employees foresee the pending death of the company. None of these signs bodes well for your future.
