About This Class
In the world of business, maintaining a healthy and productive relationship with clients is paramount. However, there may come a time when firing a client becomes necessary for various reasons, such as misalignment of values, unmet expectations, or unsustainable working dynamics. While this situation is never easy, it is crucial to handle it with professionalism, empathy, and grace.
This mini-course is designed to equip professionals with the essential knowledge and skills to navigate the delicate process of terminating a client relationship in a respectful and compassionate manner. Students will learn effective techniques for identifying warning signs that signal the need for client termination, and how to approach the situation proactively to mitigate potential issues.
NOTE: This is designed to be a soft-skills development course, drawing on our personal experiences in over 15 years of client management. The sweet sauce is the PDF with sample emails that you can use to jumpstart your own firing/conflict management emails (or even as “scripts” for difficult in-person discussions).
