Building Talent in a Time of Layoffs

published 294 days, 8 hours, 13 minutes ago posted by DonDeaDonDea 294 days, 18 hours, 26 minutes ago

Companies need to assess their workforces today, but they should also look at their likely needs as conditions change. Traditional layoff tactics may serve to cut costs, but they often cause damage both inside and outside the company that is hard to repair. A more thoughtful and strategic approach to layoffs will ameliorate the short-term impact while leaving the company poised for growth in the next few years. As the economic crisis unfolded and the need for cash became vital, corporate leaders had no cho... (more)

If you can’t do that one thing, you won’t survive to do another. I know that’s easier said than done, but that doesn’t change the fact that your success depends on it. Every time I see a manager, company, or business fail to do their primary function right, I wonder how they got to be where they are. Here are some real-world examples to illustrate the point: The capt..... (more)

“Focus on the strengths. This is the key. If safety and family values are strong, the person might need to know that the job is safe, and this is something you should emphasize during talks. If ambitions and winner instincts are strong, they will love to get feedback on how to improve, and when they do great it is important to show that you notice it.

Fixing our own financial problems means nothing if we don't help those we serve fix their problems, too. The moment our efforts at self-preservation impede our ability to serve others, we've gone too far. (more)

Many of these takeaways came from a great presentation by Jessica Medaille and Jennifer Ragan-Fore of the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) on... (more)

How to create a culture that combines healthy risk taking with effective risk management. Want to buy a pile of second mortgages with a loan-to-equity value of 99 to 1, and scant documentation on borrower qualifications? (By the way, those borrowers might not live in the homes they’re mortgaging.) And, sure, it’s possible the borrowers are lying about their income and job status. (But who cares?) Today, even considering such a package seems ridiculous. Yet most of these loans, part of a fund sold by a major... (more)
