You Hired the Wrong Person. Now What?

You’ve interviewed them, checked the experience, got everyone’s opinion and made the hire. Then they start, and something just doesn’t feel right. So what do you do when you realise you may have hired the wrong person? In this episode, Lewis Maleh looks at one of the more uncomfortable parts of hiring: what happens when a new hire isn’t working out. From getting the first 90 days and onboarding right, to deciding whether someone needs more support or whether it’s time to part ways, Lewis explains why the worst option is often doing nothing. Because sometimes the right decision is to invest more. And sometimes, for everyone involved, it’s knowing when to call it. **Topics include:** hiring mistakes, onboarding, the first 90 days, developing employees, performance, leadership and knowing when to part ways. \---- 🎙️ *Espresso with Lewis — practical leadership insights, no fluff.* Connect with me: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lmaleh Learn more: https://bentleylewis.com
