Letting Go: A Tough Decision, But It Doesn’t Have to Be

As business owners, we’ve all faced that heart-wrenching moment when we have to let someone go. Whether they were great employees who simply weren’t the right fit or hires that didn’t pan out, it never gets easier. Every time, it feels like a personal failure—like you made the wrong decision in hiring.

But here’s the truth: No one taught us how to hire correctly. When you first started your business, there wasn’t a manual on how to manage people or make perfect hires. Most of us learned through trial and error, often relying on gut instinct to choose candidates who seemed like the right fit. And that approach? It’s not always reliable.

Wouldn’t it be easier if hiring wasn’t a coin toss?

You’re not alone in this struggle. In these times, new home sales have stalled, and we’re all doing our best just to keep things moving. Many of our clients are facing the same challenges—trying to keep staff engaged, balancing the lack of sales with the rising cost of doing business, and even dealing with halted construction projects due to sky-high interest rates and development charges.

Are you finding yourself creating busy work to keep your team occupied? It’s a tough spot to be in.

That’s why we need to rely on partnerships and resources to help each other through these challenging times. We’re here to support you in one of the hardest parts of this journey: letting go of an employee.

Introducing our Outplacement Services.

We understand that sitting across from someone and delivering the “unfortunately” speech is one of the toughest tasks a leader can face. But we can help make it a little easier. Our outplacement service allows you to provide your employees with a lifeline—access to a candidate portal where they can register for upcoming construction jobs and connect with opportunities.

Once they’re registered, we’ll take it from there. We provide them with:

  • Upskilling opportunities
  • Resume and LinkedIn profile reviews
  • Interview preparation
  • And much more to help them transition back into the workforce.

It’s a win-win-win for everyone involved.

We’re here to support you in making these tough decisions while ensuring your employees are well taken care of in their next steps. Feel free to reach out with any questions, or simply register with us today and let us help you navigate these challenging times.
