"It’s never pleasant to consider terminating an employee. But if you've tried to help him or her improve through training,feedback,mentorship,and a formal performance improvement plan and the problem remains, it’s probably best to terminate the relationship. Often, it’s in the best interest of the team, the organisation,and even the employee to part ways before permanent damage is done" says Ashely Fans a marketing professional and corporate, marketing and MBA blogger.
While this postulation is welcome, here are six employees that you should do away with urgently otherwise your organisation will pay a big price. These employees do one or more of the following:
Incites the people against the management
A constructive dissent or criticism could be a great asset to an organisation's management as the offer an opportunity for a balanced perspective. However, a situation where someone is seen to constantly undermine corporate decisions or seeks to project superiors and the management in bad light is dangerous for the organisation and shouldn't be handled with kid-gloves. The individual should be disengaged forthwith.
Is never on timeÂ
An organisation's greatest resource is not money but time. Money lost can be replaced but any time lost is irreplaceable. The real difference between the highly successful organisation and the one that struggles is primarily about how they utilize their time. Great brands are time efficient. Any employee who consistently fails to show up as at when due is a drag on the potentials of the organisation and should be released.
Always decline unexpected assignments
The rapidly changing demands of the market makes the expectation of a fixed, predictable job description unrealistic. It is important that employees are capable of thinking on their feet, adapt quickly to shifting priorities, and be ready to do whatever it takes, irrespective of role or position, to get things done. Anyone who is in the habit of refusing or unwilling to commit to unexpected assignments is not fit for the organisation.
 Disregards organisation's mission and values.
A company's mission and values are her life wire as they give her essence and competitiveness. There is no better way to frustrate an organisations quest for success than by disrespecting her mission and core values. Anyone who does that is technically one of the biggest threats to the organisation's survival and should be shown the way out.Â
 Cannot work with others.
Exponential success is founded on team work. Interpersonal capabilities of employees therefore cannot afford to take a back seat in the organisation's priorities. It’s natural to butt heads with colleagues once in a while in the course of duty. Sometimes, we can't but disagree to agree. But someone with an unhealthy competitive spirit or an ego-maniac, who disrespects other people’s feelings and rights often preferring to bully his way through will fragment the team and by extension the organisation. A house divided against itself shall not stand .The employee guilty of such should be released.
Creates reasons for Clients to frequently complain
Customer is not only king, he is the boss. Customers can sack everyone in the organisation including you the leader by just taking their money to somewhere else. It’s normal to make mistakes though. However, when an employee consistently puts you in a situation where you have to apologize to stakeholders, especially customers, is detrimental to your brand reputation and survival. A bad image with customers is not only bad for business, it can sink it. One of your job descriptions as a leader is to protect the organisation from threats both internal and external. Never hesitate to use the red card on an employee with this trait.
Not teachable
Result is multiplied by synergy. The art of listening,taking corrections and seeking input from other stakeholders are all part of the synergy process. An employee with a "know- it -all " attitude,never giving heed to instructions,advice and guidance from other stakeholders is a rebel and a big socio- economic risk. The lack of respect for other people's view may cost the organization the opportunity of alternative ideas- the bedrock of creativity and innovation. A non teachable employee believes the organization revolves around him so are often arrogant, not fair and equitable in their dealings with others. This makes their presence toxic and a liability to corporate chemistry, productivity and by extension growth. The only smart choice here would be to disengage such employee as quickly as possible.
