Replacing an Underachieving Employee

December 21, 2016 by Don Jasensky

Every leader has to make decisions regarding underachieving employees. When a leader determines that an employee is incapable or unwilling to perform at the required level, it is time to make a change.  Once a decision is made to replace  an employee the question becomes whom do we replace the employee with?

There are several options:

  1. Do not replace the employee and spread the work among existing staff
  2. Promote a person to the position and replace the junior position
  3. Look outside the company for an experienced high achiever

When you need to look outside your own company keep several points in mind:

  • It is best to find the replacement prior to terminating the employee. You do not want a position to go unfilled for very long.
  • It is important that you talk to the best people available – do not limit yourself to respondents to an advertisement!  The best people are seldom looking. At any given time only 5 to 10 % of employees are actively looking for a new position.  You will be competing both in and outside your industry for their attention.
  • If you are not interviewing the best candidates in the marketplace – you will not be hiring the best candidate!
  • Keep the position confidential. Turmoil is created when an employee knows that he is being replaced

When you find yourself in the position of replacing an employee, a good recruitment firm will work in complete confidence. For over a quarter of a century Automotive Personnel, LLC  has been:

  • recruiting the highest achievers,
  • setting up confidential interviews,
  • negotiating the compensation and
  • reducing the risk of acceptance of counter-offers!

We endeavor to make the hiring process as simple as 1, 2, 3…….

  • Contact us with your need
  • We do all the search and recruitment work and present the best to you
  • You interview and hire the best

Let us know if we can assist your company with your personnel needs.
