How to Determine if an Employee Should be Untethered

Talent MagnetismFollowing is an excerpt from my forthcoming book, Talent Magnetism. The book is now available for pre-order.

Ask yourself the following questions to help determine whether a particular person needs to be untethered from your organization:

  1. If this person left tomorrow, would anyone notice?
  2. Has this person reached his maximum potential and can do no more?
  3. Can this person take us where we need to be?
  4. Is it in this person’s best interest to remain in our employ?

Your answers will dictate what needs to be done next.
