Sally began by sharing, “I have an employee I need to fire.” After gaining understanding, I asked Sally if her employee was aware of her concerns. She said “no.”
Finally, I asked, “If you terminated him today would he be blindsided?” Sally thoughtfully answered “yes.”
Sally owed it to her employee to clearly communicate her expectations for his job and her concerns before considering any form of discipline.
Moses told the Israelites in Deuteronomy 28:15, “If you do not obey the Lord your God and do not carefully follow all His commands and decrees I am giving you today, all these curses will come on you and overtake you.”
If you’re having trouble with an employee, be sure they have clear expectations before considering disciplinary action. We all deserve clarity.
