Most leaders know when someone isn't working out, for months – sometimes years. So why does it take so many of them so long to do anything about it? Dr. Dennis Davis has a theory, and it has a lot more to do with the manager than the employee.
This is part one of our two-part series about letting people go with empathy and dignity.
Topic Highlights:
– The real cost of the “performing-at-35%-is-better-than-zero” rationalization
– Why the "myth of niceness" is actually the least kind thing a manager can do for an underperformer
– The skill/will matrix: a simple diagnostic tool for knowing whether you have a performance problem, a motivation problem, or a fit problem
– How PIPs are too often used incorrectly, and what doing so says about your organization's integrity
– Why employee success is ultimately contingent on your leadership style
Guest Bio:
Dr. Dennis Davis is a clinical psychologist and national expert in conflict resolution at Ogletree Deakins, a multinational law firm specializing in labor and employment law.
