Terminating a Senior Manager

Any advice for how to terminate a Senior Manager? I have contacted the attorney to draw up a severance package and continued healthcare. I am contemplating how the job duties transition will work. This manager doesn't fit our team well. Any advice on how to best handle the meeting so the person leaves with some dignity? Any advice on how we can be prepared for questions or reactions? Any special preparations or things to think about/review beforehand?
Thanks!
Thanks!

It's best to keep these things as brief as possible and not get into any type of lengthy discussion with an employee as to "why".
Good luck!
WE HAVE TERMINATED SEVERAL MANAGERS AND BECAUSE WE HAD ALL THE ANSWERS,IT HAS ALWAYS GONE SMOOTHLY OVER 5 TO 10 MINUTES AND IT WAS OVER.

It is one of the hardest jobs HR does, in my opinion, the straightforward approach suggested by Rockie is one that most frequently works the best for apure termination. Of course, a voluntary resignation is a better spin and all of those severance goodies available make a great carrot.
Good luck.
