Q4 retention risk: 60% of execs are eyeing the exit

The hidden exit risk in your boardroom

As a CEO, you’re not waiting to react; you’re reading signals early.​

Here’s one that should stop you in your tracks:

  • 60% of executives cite burnout as a reason to leave
  • Burnout can reduce decision accuracy by up to 70%
  • 55% of senior leaders report feeling emotionally exhausted

These aren’t surface-level stats. They’re the early warning signs of a Q4 performance and retention risk that’s already playing out behind closed doors.​

Senior leaders may not be quitting loudly, but many are detaching quietly.

This isn’t a Wellness Issue. It’s a Strategic One.

Stress and emotional detachment don’t just affect morale, they impact:

  • Quality of decision-making
  • Loyalty to the business
  • Energy to lead through complexity

If your senior people are distracted, disconnected, or drained, your Q4 outcomes are already under pressure.
