Letting go of a toxic employee, even if they’re a top performer
Toxic employees have a negative impact on your team. They can disrupt team dynamics, lower morale, hurt productivity, increase turnover and disrupt company culture. But what if that toxic employee is a top performer? While the toxic employee may bring value and revenue to your organization, the damage created does not justify keeping them. By the time you consider letting your high performing, toxic employee go, you’ve probably had many conversations with them about their behavior and likely created an action plan for improvement. If the person isn’t willing to change their behavior, or incapable of doing so, it’s time to sever ties. This is especially true when this person is long tenured. Don’t be afraid to take action.

NAILD Annual Conference Dallas, Sept 17 – 20
Brooke and Jacque will be there. Set a time to meet them!
If you plan on attending the NAILD Convention in Dallas, Brooke Ziolo has a presentation on September 18th, Session 5. The subject is Hiring and Retaining Employees:
She will explain the labor shortage issues in 2023. There are still roughly 3.5 million workers “missing” from the workforce, according to Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. How do you find your needle in the haystack when there is already a deficit in job seekers? And once you have them, how do you create the environment to make them stay?
