September 20, 2020What To Do After Someone Leaves Your Organization | with Dan Tocchini & Adrian Koehler

Taking ownership and responsibility as a leader
Getting connected to the root problem, not the symptom
Choosing not to scapegoat
How can you write someone a recommendation letter if you... don’t recommend them?
Understanding that this is a lifecycle, not a life sentence

Show Notes:
Adrain Koehler and Dan Tocchini help me close out the "Lifecycle of a Team Member" series by bringing it all full circle; we started with recruiting the right talent, and now we’re unpacking what you should do immediately after someone leaves the organization. You may think the answer is obvious — you hire someone to replace them — but, if you want to take this as an opportunity to grow and learn as a leader and as a business, it’s just not that simple.
