One of the toughest parts of running a coworking space is managing people. What do you do when your community manager—or any team member—isn’t living up to expectations? Do you settle, or is it time to make a transition? In this episode of the Everything Coworking Podcast, Jamie Russo walks through the signs that your team member may not be a fit, what to check before you make a change, and how to confidently prepare for a transition without losing your sanity—or your members’ trust. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: The common symptoms of underperformance (SOPs ignored, leads lost, disorganization, poor service). How to evaluate whether the problem is training and leadership—or true misalignment. Why “settling” for a mediocre fit costs more than you think. Options for outsourcing parts of the role if only 20% isn’t working. How to make SOP documentation a requirement to protect your business. Why the community manager role is often a two-year position—and how to plan for turnover. Steps to take when preparing for a transition, including consulting with an employment attorney.
