In this Mike on the Mic episode, I delve into a topic of utmost importance for CEOs and leaders– the importance of enhancing talent within your team. I’ll explore the crucial aspect of fostering a workforce where individuals consistently operate at an exceptional "A" level while reducing the presence of underperformers at the "C" or toxic "C" level.
I break down the excuses that often hinder the decision to let go of a team member who isn't meeting expectations. I examine excuses rooted in concepts like loyalty and fear, shedding light on the misconceptions that can prevent leaders from taking necessary action. By addressing these concerns head-on, I highlight the indisputable necessity of removing underperformers in order to maintain a high-performing team and cultivate a healthy work environment.
