Carl-Gould-#70secondCEO-Why One Low Performer Can Hurt Your Entire Team

Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.

So, now, business owners, I won't embarrass you by asking you to stand up if there's somebody in your business you would need to fire, because you would all stand up, but you need to let that person go. Who you say no to on your team is equally as important to who you say yes to on your team. I would rather have a smaller team of high performers than a larger team that has mid or lower performers. High performers don't like low performers. Low performers don't like high performers. Don't put them in the same room. You can find all the research. You put a high performer and a low performer in the same room. A low performer will drag down the high performer 15 to 35% in their productivity, 15 to 35%. You're better off just getting rid of the lower performer. Yeah, but who's gonna answer the phone? Oh, geez, we'll figure that out. Oh yeah, but I don't have anyone to go to the trade show. Oh, so what? Better an empty booth than what you put in that booth, right? Make sure to be, again, aware of your higher-standard people. By the way, I know accountability is a challenge in many businesses. Not when you have high performers. They love scorecards because they're always winning. Accountability only hurts when you're not meeting your goals.
