6 Signs It's Time for Someone to Exit the Business

Firing is one one the not-so-fun parts of managing a team, but it’s crucial for the success of your business. There are six main signs that it might be time for an employee to leave your company, and I break down how to recognize them and approach performance reviews. I explain how to set up a 30-day improvement plan, investigate why someone has stalled out in their role, and optimize one-on-one check-in meetings. Sometimes people aren’t the right fit and can thrive in a different environment, and I’m sharing the tools to help make that happen. 

IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:

  • What to do when the roles and responsibilities of a job has changed 
  • Having honest conversations with your employees about your expectations 
  • Supporting your staff who want to grow in a different direction 
  • How to deal with team members who believe in a different direction for the company or your team 
  • Tips for improving your termination process

Jackie Koch

Hey, I’m Jackie Koch. I have over 15 years of experience prospecting talent and building teams for Fortune 500 companies, startups and small businesses in all types of industries.  Technically, I have an MBA from Concordia University, although I’d argue I learned more about growing and scaling a modern business over the last 5 years in the LA tech start up scene. There I built out recruiting and People Operations teams for high growth tech start ups. I love entrepreneurs and being one at heart, I started my own business during the pandemic. I’m the founder and CEO of People Principles where I help founders scale through fractional recruiting and people operations services.
