Think Before You Fire: The Importance of Patience in Leadership

September 04, 2024

Today, I want to talk about an important topic that often gets overlooked in business: when and how to fire someone. I'm Josh York, your host, and I’m sharing a personal experience where I chose not to fire a team member who made a mistake. Instead, I took the time to have a heart-to-heart conversation, and it turned out to be the right decision. Firing someone shouldn't be your first reaction; it’s essential to assess the situation, consider the person’s character, and think strategically. This approach not only saved a valuable team member but also helped my business grow stronger. Tune in to learn why patience and thoughtful decision-making are crucial for any leader.
