We have a need for someone to really focus on this particular area, and I think it will be great match for your skills - and hopefully your interest! We are going to start a transition so that you can run that aspect of the operation. Jane will be coming in to backfill your current tasks, I'd like for you to work with her over the next couple of weeks to get her up to speed. We'll make your new role effective on the 15th. Let me know what support you need during the transition."
How she takes it will depend on her personality, and on how much the change looks like a demotion. If it's going from a leadership role to an individual contributor role, be prepared to emphasize that salary etc are not changing. Also be prepared to discuss what she should focus on if she has ambitions to get back into another leadership role (i.e. why she's being moved out).
Thank you!!!
As a Manager, there's difficult decisions that we have to make and unfortunately I have to tell somebody they moving to a new role . How do you tell somebody that they are being replaced with new leadership and we need for them to train their replacement? Just FYI the person being replaced is not getting fired. We just feel that they were be a better fit for another role. They keep their same salary, work in the same office, but will not be leading the team.
My DD just informed me that her coach is going to roster her for the ECNL team. She's already rostered on their EDP team, but I was wondering if this is legal?
OP here. She is 14, will be 15 in March. She is coached by a really good group of guys, so its not the coach. During the fall, she would wait until the last minute to get ready for practice, which meant she was late for training. There were a few practices where I saw her sitting on the sidelines during practices and she said she was hurt. Since they were only training during the fall, I didn't pressure her to attend practice as I felt like she was getting tired of the soccer. Now, that spring season is around the corner, instead of her asking when does the season begin, she asked when does it end. She finally came out and said she doesn't have interest in playing anymore. Since soccer was the only sport that she's played, she really doesn't have anything to fall back on.
My DD has decided she no longer wants to play soccer. I still have about 4 payments left to pay for the spring season; and I'm not sure how to handle this. Should I ask her to at least finish off the season? Let her quit? Or see if I can stop the remaining payment?
