We’ve all seen it. That one employee everyone knows isn’t carrying their weight. That one employee who makes everyone miserable with passive-aggressive, unproductive comments. That one employee who is genuinely such a nice person, but consistently fails to meet the bar. And yet… no one actually does anything about it — not even their manager.

Tune into this session to hear Melanie Naranjo (VP People, Ethena) delve into the complexities of performance management and discuss the top reasons why managers leave underperformance unchecked and actionable steps you can take today to turn things around.

This discussion provides concrete, actionable steps for addressing and improving performance issues and ways to navigate the delicate balance of managing underperforming employees with empathy and decisiveness.
