    90. Rethinking Two Weeks Notice: Rethinking employee departure strategies, tackling root issues, and building trust with psychological safety for better employee transitions.
    Jan 28 2025
    On this episode, Jeff sits down with Robert Glazer, bestselling author and thought leader on workplace culture, to challenge one of the most ingrained practices in professional life: the traditional two-week notice. Robert redefines how organizations can approach employee transitions, advocating for a collaborative, transparent, and trust-building model that he calls the “Open Transition Program.” Together, Jeff and Robert explore the impact of rethinking job departures and how it can transform workplace culture, engagement, and productivity. They delve into practical strategies for addressing employee performance issues by identifying root causes rather than treating symptoms, using a powerful analogy that redefines how leaders can approach problem-solving. The conversation also tackles the critical importance of psychological safety in leadership, explaining how vulnerability and feedback are the foundation for trust and open communication within teams. Throughout the episode, Robert shares real-world examples, actionable insights, and the four core principles that support successful employee transitions. He provides clear steps to implement these ideas while addressing common objections leaders may have. Jeff and Robert also reflect on lessons learned from crises, how leadership influences culture and the need for clarity in defining team roles.
