What to Do When a Key Employee Wants to Leave


Listen Later

Few things strike fear in a business owner’s heart like a key employee saying, “I’m leaving”, or worse, threatening to. The way you handle it can make or break your culture, your team’s morale, and even your bottom line.

In this episode, Anna Angelova and Jores Minasvand share how to approach this difficult situation with clarity and leadership. From spotting early warning signs to creating a culture where no one person is indispensable, they walk through strategies to protect your business and your team.

You’ll learn:

  • Why you should never be surprised when someone wants to leave and how to stay ahead of it

  • What to do when an employee uses “threats” to negotiate (and why letting go may be the best option)

  • How to design systems that prevent anyone from becoming irreplaceable

  • Why quarterly check-ins and proactive conversations matter

  • How to create win-win exits where everyone (your business, the team, and the employee) benefits

    If you’ve ever worried about what would happen if a key employee left, this episode will give you the mindset and systems to handle it with confidence.
