Does the thought of firing someone fill you with trepidation?

When faced with terminating an employee, you probably think, “Why can’t they just use common sense and get it right? I shouldn’t be having to have this conversation!”

But this difficult discussion doesn’t always have to end in a termination. Giving verbal warnings to employees is a pre-firing step you can take that, if done right, might even prevent the need to let someone go.

Yet, so many entrepreneurial leaders still feel hesitant about having those, too. So in this episode of Pleasurable Profits, you’ll learn a simple way to have a verbal warning conversation before things even have a chance to get to the termination stage. I’ll teach you not only how to approach verbal warnings, but also how to protect your business in the process.

5:56 - A verbal warning mistake too many people make

7:03 - Why following a step-by-step process to fire someone protects you

8:09 - The necessary mindset for giving a verbal warning to an employee

9:40 - A two-step example of how to proceed with a verbal warning conversation

14:14 - How you should end the discussion (and why you need to document it)
