Stay calm - never act in anger. Even summary dismissal can be done after an hour to prepare and calm down. If employees lash out verbally/physically, don't respond. Get it right, and this is the last time you will deal with them - they will no longer be your problem.

My Twenty Cents Worth
Back in mid-October of 2002, my husband Andy borrowed my Ford Taurus to drive to work. His truck was in the shop for the day, and since I stayed at home with our baby, I relinquished my car to him.Andy’s everyday route to work involves a short stint on the New York State Thruway, and the toll for this ride is twenty cents. Lucky for him, the benevolent Thruway Authority provides something they like to call E-Z Pass, wherein you plac

Firing, sacking, letting go or terminating people is unpleasant. There are ways to minimise resentment, but why bother? Because most legal action and unpleasantness stems from dissatisfaction/resentment about the way things were handled - about how rather than what happened. Dismissal can be unfair because of the reason, or the way it was done, so you need to be extremely careful. In the law regarding employer-employee relationships, fairness is key. You must be fair, and be seen to be fair. But fairness, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder - after being terminated, very few people have clear vision!

Prepare a disciplinary process/policy given to all, with a sequence of verbal then written warnings ending with dismissal. Ensure processes allow for discipline/termination on grounds of both performance (capability) and attitude (conduct). Specify your right to instantly dismiss someone (summary dismissal) for gross misconduct, and give guidance on what would constitute this.

Have hard evidence to back up all decisions. Documentation of poor conduct and/or capability is essential. You have to follow your own process to avoid legal unfairness. Negative appraisals/reviews make good evidence.

Never take decisions lightly - weak performance can sometimes be improved by skilled intervention/support. Termination is traumatic/demotivating for surviving staff, even when they understand why.

Avoid surprises by giving every opportunity for improvement before opting to terminate. This reduces grounds for legal action. Plus, survivors feel less threatened if they see you are fair. Employees who have been aware for some time there is a problem are usually less traumatised, and may already be looking elsewhere. Always avoid firing someone who has no idea its a possibility, except for summary dismissal.

Get legal advice if you have any questions. Balance ?200-500 for advice against ?50,000 max unfair dismissal compensation! Phone lawyers and ask for advice on dismissal - sometimes possible over the phone for a fee. Remember, sexual/racial discrimination compensation is unlimited, so always take legal advice if this might be alleged, whether or not it happened.

Plan your speech exactly and write out a script. It ensures you say everything necessary, and helps if you get stuck. There can be temptation to offer sympathetic/reassuring words to sweeten the message. Unfortunately, kindness here can cause confusion and lead to legal action. Have a witness present - never fire one-to-one.

S.W.O.T. Your Competition
One of the first things I like to do with a new client is to go through a process called SWOT Analysis. SWOT is an acronym for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. SWOT Analysis is a technique business owners can use to evaluate areas within their operation that can be leveraged for competitive gain or focused upon to improve the business.When you identify your Strengths, you are bringing into focus

How Creative Branding can Help Boring Businesses
I come across a fair number of clients who apologize for their companies… “We’re sorry that manufacturing label paste is not the most interesting thing in the world.” Or, “There’s nothing we can do to stand out… we’re in the business of finding cheaper ways to for demolition customers to dump trash. We don’t dump the trash. We just research the cheapest way for them to dump their own trash. It’s really dry stuff.”Yes, neither of the

Career Success Through Loving What You Do
Rumor has it that most people are living lives of quiet desperation, not engaged in work that brings them fulfillment. If that’s true for you, take heart. There is a way for you to love what you do and do what you love.Some people set out working in organizations or committed to jobs only to find they have surprisingly moved away from their original intention. If they moved into their field to “make a difference,” they now push pap

Be humane - treat people sympathetically if possible - without conveying anything positive about conduct/capability. They are losing their job and income. They are frightened, angry, upset, devastated - and you have to deal with it. Sympathise with their predicament without commenting on the cause. Being calm and softly spoken can negate trauma. It also decreases unpleasantness - it's harder to abuse someone who is being nice to you.

Recommended action: · Have a policy, publicised to all staff, and signed for receipt by all.

· Have the policy legally checked by an expert.

· Always prepare.

· Remember the way you terminate someone can be legally unfair, even if the grounds are perfect.

When I stumbled across the company that I am with now, I didn't know anything about multi level marketing. I was a business owner with twelve employees. I went to the top of the company as a National Sales Director for Ameriplan. I also have on my team a distributor who has attained the status of National Sales Director.

All business owners are constantly looking for ways to build their business. They often have questions about the best way to increase customers and sales. There are ten steps that have proven to be successful.
