I talked to a business owner recently who had kept a woman as his office manager for 2 years knowing she wasn't good for his business. Finally he had the conversation to tell her that he was letting her go. He was astounded when, at the end of the conversation the woman said, "Thank you. You've given me clarity!"
Firing someone really can have a positive outcome for that person.
It takes someone who cares about people to fire people
The fact that you’re willing to have the discussion is evidence that you care more about the person than you care about yourself… because
you’re willing to get out of your comfort zone and have an uncomfortable conversation.
While firing someone is a painful experience for a person, your compassionate mindset will guide your words and help steer the person on to an even better job experience at their next company.
If you think you may need to fire someone, read this month’s blogpost to acquire a compassionate mindset so that person walks away feeling good.
Wishing your business inspired results.
