HR Dilemma: How should you fire a member of the Board?

Deciding to terminate a Board member or leader in your organisation is not something to take lightly. We asked an employee termination specialist, Collin of Mr Good Spirits Inc, what steps you need to take to make it as seamless as possible.

How do you know when you need to fire someone from the Board?

When their presence, actions or influence is creating a negative association that exceeds acceptable conflict levels with others and or the company as a whole. This could be a textbook definition, however when it comes to people, it is never that simple.

The clearest answer [I have] heard is this: when a leader no longer has the confidence of the staff to represent them or the company’s vision of success.
