Nobody likes terminating an employee. It’s likely that you’re worried about affecting the livelihood of the employee (and their family). Yet, terminations are an unfortunate necessity of doing business. HR and managers have to make sure this sensitive act is handled appropriately.

You're Fired!

If an employee is disrupting your team, failing to meet their goals, or lacking key competencies, a termination may be the best or only option—but that doesn’t make it any easier to plan or execute. Whether it is your first or hundredth termination, getting it right can be a challenge.
