More effort, hours, coaching, or feedback won’t fix a placement problem. In this episode, Leila breaks down the framework she uses to figure out whether someone on the team is the wrong person or just in the wrong seat or season. The goal is not to keep everybody but to always keep the right team members in the right seats.
