00:00:00.000 How do you know the difference between humans make mistakes and when it's time to part ways
00:00:06.640 with an employee? My framework is always, is it a process problem or a people problem? I actually
00:00:12.460 had a sales guy make a $100,000 mistake a few years ago. He called me up, felt horrible about
00:00:18.140 it. I remember listening to him. I said, are you done? He's like, what do you mean? I said,
00:00:22.240 did you learn the lesson? He said, yes. I said, good. I said, here's the thing. I know there's
00:00:27.700 no process for what you did, that's my fault. We're going to add to the process so you can't
00:00:32.820 make the mistake ever again. If I've done that and the mistake keeps happening,
00:00:36.820 then I probably have a people problem.
