Law firm owners sometimes keep employees who are holding the team back, convincing themselves the problem isn't what it seems. In this episode, Melissa explores why that happens and what it costs you, your team, and your firm. She covers the signs of broken trust, the impact on morale and productivity, and why taking action is essential for maintaining a high-performing team.

Melissa also discusses how delayed terminations can create bigger problems over time and offers guidance on how to make leadership decisions that protect both your team and your business. This episode provides a framework for identifying issues early and addressing them strategically.
