Coaching for Managers on Breaking the News

Managing after a layoff is one of the most challenging leadership experiences. Providing an empathetic response in the first few months will set the tone for employee motivation and will ensure a higher level of engagement.

Remaining employees usually transition through a number of negative emotions about work, management and the company overall. Some of the negative emotions that can develop include confusion, anxiety, stress, mistrust, apathy and hostility.

Managers will benefit from Career Decisions expert Career Coaching and will become skilled in conducting effective career discussions. They will be guided on how to support remaining employees, reassure them about their value, answer questions, explain how expectations have changed and outline the future vision for the organisation.
