As easy as it might be to condemn such behavior, bosses instead need to embrace it. There’s nothing wrong with admitting that maybe, just maybe, your current workplace can’t meet all of your professional goals and curiousities. In fact, it might not even be able to train you in some of the areas you’re most interested in.

Instead of denying that it’s happening in your office, learn how to leverage it. Ask your employees what they’re working on. Find out what they’re learning. Get to know them more, and get to know what they can do for the company more.
