The importance of culture when facing a dismissal<\/h1>\n

\u200e<\/h2>\n

When a company has to dismiss some of its employees, it should not underestimate the complications and side effects that may result from this process. All factors must be taken into account. It is not just about the actual process, but also about attitudes and actions \u2013 something we can refer to as \u201cculture\u201d.<\/p>\n

Preparation, preparation and more preparation!<\/h2>\n

Lay-offs, however many, are a huge intervention in people\u2019s lives and a company\u2019s culture. The better prepared we are for the task, the more valuably it will proceed for everyone involved, and the more easily both the company and the affected employees will move on.<\/p>\n

We are involved before, during and after<\/h2>\n

We have many years of experience of advising and training executives, mid-level managers, shop stewards and HR on the subject of lay-offs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t
