READY, AIM, FIRE: A HOW-TO GUIDE FOR EMPLOYEE TERMINATIONS
Monday, September 16, 2024 | 11:30AM – 1:00PM
In your career, you may face the challenging task of conducting a layoff or employee termination. It’s a difficult position to be in, but with the right preparation, you can handle it effectively and with poise. While no one looks forward to these conversations, careful planning can help make them less painful and awkward for everyone involved, while also reducing potential legal and personal risks. Employee terminations are among the riskiest actions an employer can take. In this seminar, we’ll explore how to make the right decision, plan thoroughly, and execute the termination process in a way that minimizes risks to your business.
Key topics include:
– Approaching terminations with empathy, clarity, and a strong understanding of best practices and legal considerations.
– Managing confrontational behavior during termination meetings.
– Communicating a layoff due to business downturns, even when the employee’s performance has been strong.
– Addressing situations where a terminated employee misrepresents the facts or reasons for their separation to other employees.
Join us to gain the tools and confidence needed to handle terminations with professionalism and care.
This is a lunch and learn.
