Every manager thinks these phrases are legally safe. But according to attorney James Bryton, they're basically an engraved invitation to a lawsuit. And a lot could be avoided if leaders took a different approach to letting people go.
This is part two of our two-part series about letting people go with empathy and dignity.
Topic Highlights:
– The “middle lane” of firing and why it's where most separations actually belong
– Why “not a good fit” is one of the most legally dangerous things you can say in a termination meeting
– The thoughtful approach to choreography for letting someone go
– Why how a termination ends matters more than almost everything that preceded it
