One of the hardest responsibilities in business is letting someone go.

Most founders and managers avoid it too long, handle it emotionally, or fail to understand the legal and operational risks involved. The result can damage morale, company culture, productivity, and even expose the business to unnecessary legal issues.

In this episode of The Biz Show, Barry and Lisa break down how to handle employee termination professionally, strategically, and legally.

In this 30-minute business primer, we cover:

• When termination is actually necessary

• How to document performance and behavioral issues properly

• The right way to conduct a termination meeting

• Why different state labor laws matter

• Common mistakes employers make during termination

• How poor termination practices impact culture and morale

• How to protect your company, your team, and yourself

This is a difficult topic, but it is one every founder, business owner, and manager eventually faces.
