Ever struggled with knowing when it’s time to let a team member go?
If you’re constantly questioning it, you might already have your answer.
In this episode, I share insights from a recent conference where I led a workshop on growing your business sustainably (without burning out). During the workshop, someone asked about knowing the right time to part ways with a team member. My answer? If you’re already wondering, it might be time.
I also emphasize how important it is for team members to bring a sense of relief, not stress.
Alignment is also key, so I encourage business owners to listen to their instincts and consider if their team truly supports their future vision. Additionally, I share tips on how to help great employees grow, and when it’s best to make hard choices with those who may be holding you back.
In this episode of the Lean Out Your Business Podcast, I share:
- Identifying the right time to let someone go
- How to make the decision without overthinking
- Balancing loyalty with business success and scale
- How to best support the person you need to let go
- Preparing your team for next-level growth
