Having to fire an employee can be awful and zero fun! And if you're a first-time boss or new to owning a business, you're going to have to fire someone eventually.
Is it possible that instead of firing someone, you could work on improving their performance so you don't have to? Naturally if it's a character issue (lying, stealing, etc) just rip that band-aid OFF! If it's a performance issue, I'm going to teach you the 2 things I learned to consider before making the decision to let the employee go.
Also on this episode:
- AI / Productivity - Seems like we are hearing about AI everywhere! You're probably not even aware that you are using it already for everyday tasks.
