Business
It's one thing to lose your job. It's a whole other ball game to be the one doing the firing, especially if you're running a small business with a close team. Far from fun, more than one of our entrepreneurs describes terminating an employee as the worst part of the job. In the second episode of Making It Work we speak to David Patrick of Shark Wheel, Dana Donofree of AnaOno, Heidi Hale of Heidi J. Hale Designs and Aqila Augusta of Edge Entity. From handling gross misconduct to providing opportunities for redemption, we discuss the delicate art of preparing for and giving someone the boot. Our entrepreneurs share candid tales about the measures they've had to take to hold employees accountable and to keep their businesses up and running. So, what's the best way to break the news when it's crunch time? Tune in to find out.
