Lead with compassion amid layoffs with Starling Training

"If you're going through hell, keep going." -Winston Churchill

Layoffs may initially offer short-term cost savings, but these gains are typically outweighed by negative repercussions such as detrimental publicity, loss of institutional knowledge, decreased employee engagement, increased voluntary turnover, and reduced innovation. These consequences ultimately undermine long-term profitability. There is no "good" way to execute a layoff but at Starling Training we deliver strategies for a smarter approach that is both humane to your employees and better for your business.

  • When to consider downsizing

  • Provide Decision Making Frameworks to help make the hard choices

  • Deliver Logistics and Communication Strategies

  • Plan for emotionally intelligent support for those who leave, those who stay, and the leaders who guide the business post-layoff
