Do any of the questions listed below sound familiar?
- How am I going to do the work of five people?
- Are the layoffs over? Am I next?
- Why should I care if “they” obviously can’t be trusted to do what they say and say what they do?
If so, then I’ve designed this ActionPack™ just for you.
You made the cut. Your organization just laid off some portion of its employee baseand you still have a job. Congratulations! Now why do you not feel like the winner? The stress of being left behind can be as much if not more than being let go. Why?
I built this ActionPack™ to help you through the transition and get back to productive work. It is a framework, self-assessment, knowledge, and group of techniques for helping yourself cope with feelings of being left behind in your organization in a post reduction in force (RIF) operating environment.
