One thing I do not recommend is trying to retain the person who is leaving. If they’ve shown the willingness or desire to leave, you have to let them go. There is no such thing as indentured servitude in startup land and when someone shows that they are mentally out, they should not stick around except to insure a smooth transition.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://www.avc.com/a_vc/2010/03/transitioning-from-one-job-to-another.html" target="_blank">Transitioning From One Job To Another</a></em>http://ldersh.com/post/812820346http://ldersh.com/post/812820346Wed, 14 Jul 2010 19:56:01 -0400
