Continuing with the previous theme of retaining talented developers
I'd like to talk more about knowing the passions and goals of your
software developers. With goals in hand it's your job as a manager to
help a developer advance down her chosen career path.
In a perfect world you'd have an unlimited training budget and
abundant time to spend helping your team grow their skills and reach
their goals. Over here in reality though there's still quite a bit
you can do with limited budgets and time.

You might not stop to think about it during your busy day but
companies like yours have a lot of money riding on their software
development teams. Loosing one of your developers, especially one of
your more talented ones, would directly translate into a loss of
revenue.
Stop for a minute and think about your software developers. If one of
them came up to you and quit today, what would you do? Are you doing
everything you can to retain them? Probably not, but that's okay,
better late than never.
