“I have to just set absolute clear expectations for what I need from this person and if they don't want to meet them, that is their choice." Today, Leila (@LeilaHormozi) shares with us her experience in firing employees and gives advice on how to make the right decision. She also emphasizes the importance of understanding the root cause of the problem and taking an approach that is not all or nothing.

Welcome to Build where we talk about the lessons I have learned in scaling big businesses, gaining millions in sales, and helping our portfolio companies do the same. Buckle up, because we’re creating an unshakeable business.
