Sometimes when it comes to managing employee expectations and underperformance, we as employers can overlook very simple solutions and overcomplicate the process, all while unintentionally alienating the employee. Employee issues are not black and white. 

More often than not, it takes some digging to uncover the underlying issues that are causing your employee to underperform in their role. This week’s episode of the Entrepreneur to Employer podcast is about dealing with an underperforming employee- never assuming the reasons why. 

In this episode, Brian shares a real-life example of a scenario in which he had to resolve employee underperformance issues and the framework you can use in your own employee underperformance resolution. 

The framework Brian covers in this episode includes:

1. Collect the data that proves the underperformance issues. 
2. Approach the employee with the problem and the facts to back it up. 
3. Review and reestablish expectations with the employee. 
4. Uncover the underlying reason behind the underperformance and come up with an action plan.
