The following is a step by step process of how to NOT fire someone (still incomplete):
- decide that after one year of complaining from staff and customers "realize" that the person probably doesn't fit on your organization
- take six months to "coach" the employee
- restructure the organization so the employee is managed by someone else
- take three months to "re-coach" the employee
- create another job for the employee that is not in the budget
- develop a termination process with dates
- "fire" the employee
- allow the employee to negotiate the pay and timing of the new position
- engage in a yelling match with employees spouse
- hear the employee voice their inability to believe in the goals, vision and plans for the organization
- allow the CEO to enter into the conversation and open up dialogue for negotiation
more to come......
