Reflections Of A Ceo

In this episode, I want to answer a question I received on how I decide to fire someone and how to do it.  It’s an extremely complicated thing that doesn’t necessarily get easier. Funny thing: it took me 6 months to build up the courage to fire someone for the first time.  But there are certain things that I’ve picked up along the way that can help you make this type of decisions.  In this segment, I’m sharing with you the real-life tactics and I hope you can take advantage of them and use them in your business.  Here’s what I’ll touch on: A story on the first time I fired someone 1:20 The one question you need to ask yourself before you pull the trigger 5:30 Culture vs. Performance-related reasons 6:20 How to legally protect yourself as a small business owner 11:15 Is there a “best” day to do it? 18:20 The emotional component to firing people 21:20
