I’m letting go of an employee this week, and it’s making me feel terrible. I’m wracked with guilty and full of empathy.

I’m still letting them go, but any advise on how to not feel so emotionally guilty for firing someone?

    You don’t. It’s not supposed to feel good. All you can say is you’re freeing them up to find something that’s a better fit and you’re opening an opportunity for someone else. It still doesn’t feel good.
