All tagged Letting go of high performers

This month, the podcast is focused on talent, specifically what we can and should expect of our people, as well as how we evaluate and manage them.

In today's episode, I talk about the difficult decision to let capable people go from your organization. People who've grown with you, contributed significantly, and continue to do their work. But, for reason's I discuss, you simply can't keep them any longer.

This month's podcast focuses on the topic of high performers and interestingly, whether they ever have an expiry date. Is there ever a time to let them go?

This topic was inspired by the debate that has raged on over the last few months around Arsenal Football Club, one of the top football (soccer) teams in England. Fans of the club, the media and (some suggest) the board, have all debated whether it was time for Arsene Wenger, the most successful manager in the club's history, to go.
