Omar Zenhom
About this episode

Letting go of someone who’s a genuinely great person—but just not the right fit for the job—is tough. What do you do when an employee is well-liked, loyal, but underperforming? If making the right decision for your business feels like the hardest one, you’re not alone.

In this episode, Omar breaks down why firing good people who are bad employees isn’t just necessary—it’s actually better for your team and your business in the long run. You’ll learn why keeping underperformers can quietly drag down morale, hold back top talent, and keep your business from growing the way it should. Omar shares clear, respectful strategies for handling these tough situations, plus key mindset shifts every business leader should consider before making the final call.

Doing what’s best for your company, your team, and your customers isn’t easy—but this episode will help you make the right move with confidence. Hit play at the top of the page and get the straight-up steps you need!
