Redundancies and Restructures: It's not personal

Redundancies and Restructures: It's not personal

Episode #64 // Restructures in large organisations are commonplace, and quite often imply that the organisation is seeking greater efficiency, which results in a number of roles being made redundant. These decisions, from the front line perspective, may seem to lack rationality and create a lot of angst, as sometimes very good people are moved on.


How do you handle this emotionally and psychologically if you are caught in the firing line and, in your role as a leader, how can you help to make a redundancy and restructure process as painless as possible for your people, while giving your organisation the best chance of capturing value?


This episode covers all the basics you need to manage redundancies, and provides guidance on handling the most difficult conversations.


I've made a cracking free PDF downloadable for this episode, '9 Ways to Get Redundancies Right' which you can download from www.yourceomentor.com/episode64
