I am almost finished with my first full month back on the job.
And I am about to let go of one of my reps. The rep was left on board because we needed a body to keep the store open when we let the previous team go and were transitioning to a new team.
There is push to have them perform or lose the current position they have and possibly terminate their employment. I would like to rehab the individual – but as their behavior has shown, they could care less about the situation. With the new crew I have, I cannot afford to have a negative individual bring down the ship.
On a brighter note – the training material I have been working on has helped in guiding my reps’ attention and efforts. Also looks like I will be working with a couple of my peers in developing an actual training course for our new hires.
This is something I am very much looking forward to!
I will write more in the coming days – but at the moment I am busy with getting my team up to speed so that when I go out of the country on vacation I won’t have to worry about my location not making it’s daily quota!
