Agree on the blame point, but not on firing point. As a manager, sometimes you need to fire people, that's a necessary part your job. And no, changing the hiring process cannot prevent that.
- ycombobreaker 3y agoFiring somebody for a simple mistake with grave consequences doesn't make your organization stronger. There will be plenty of better examples to make.
- skrebbel 3y agoFiring people for incidental mistakes instead of overall bad performance is pretty shitty management.
- deepsun 3y agoFor one incidental mistake of course not. For repeated inattention (like plugging mars rover's cables wrongly several times) at an attention-demanding job -- yes.
- dividedbyzero 3y agoSo you'd not blame them for their simple mistake, but still fire them for it?
