Episode 92: Goodness Gracious(ness)! Thinking About Resigning?

In this episode, we get into the nitty gritty around what the resignation experience is like from both an employee and an employer perspective. Resigning can be really daunting! And empowering. And both parties, the employee/er, have the potential to behave like jerks. We talk about how to make it a less jerk-y experience.

Key Takeaways:

• If possible, really make sure you are ready to quit your job and that it isn’t an emotional-in-the-heat-of-the-moment decision.

• As the employer, remember that this could be really scary for the employee! They are likely nervous and have been feeling anxious about coming to you.

• For both sides, stay respectful and be present in the moment. Because you never know…maybe you’ll want to work at that same place again! OR, maybe as the manager you would really like to recruit this person again! A terrible resignation experience could really damage those options.
