#163 Getting Fired

The Joyful DVM Podcast: Empowering Veterinary Professionals

In this episode, Dr. Cari Wise discusses the topic of getting fired as a veterinary professional.

Dr. Wise emphasizes that getting fired does not mean that the individual is bad or not cut out for the job, and encourages individuals to approach the situation with curiosity and compassion, seeking to understand the experience and learn from it.

The importance of organizations providing clear employee expectations and regular feedback in the workplace is highlighted, as well as the role of leadership in firing employees.

Key takeaways from the context include:

1. Getting fired does not define one's worth or value as a human being.
2. It is important to approach getting fired with curiosity and compassion, seeking to understand the experience and learn from it.
3. Employers must set clear expectations and give regular feedback in the workplace in order for employees to perform and grow.
4. Sometimes getting fired has nothing to do with the individual and may be a result of organizational changes or position eliminations.
