When your star seller becomes a team toxin: what's the next move?

Time to call the good doctor! Bob Phibbs, often hailed as the retail guru, rejoins The FAM in this episode to take a deep dive into the high-stakes world of managing rockstar salespeople without letting the show turn into a one-man band catastrophe.

Imagine a business as a harmonious orchestra, but with a soloist who plays by their own rules, disrupting the melody. Bob explores the discordant note a high-flyer with a mismatched attitude can strike in a team, turning the workplace symphony into a cacophony. He advocates for a bold move—re-auditioning the entire ensemble to ensure every member can play the future tunes of success. The conversation doesn’t shy away from the tough decisions either, discussing how to tune up or tune out the prima donnas causing disharmony.

By the finale, Bob’s advice crescendos into a powerful message: sometimes, you need to cut ties with the toxic stars to let the whole choir shine. This episode is less about hitting the high notes in sales and more about orchestrating a culture where everyone plays in key.
