Communication and compassion are of the utmost importance. While all upper level decisions and conversations can’t be shared with staff, there needs to be a constant flow of information. Being withholding and secretive can poison the workplace and cause irreparable damage. Giving staff as much forewarning as possible, not blindsiding them, and sharing rationale can better prepare staff for big changes and will show that you care about the impacts on them.
After mass layoffs, transparent communication is vital. Hold team meetings to address concerns and provide reassurance about the company’s direction. Offer support through counseling services and encourage open dialogue. Organize team-building activities and recognition programs to foster a sense of belonging. Highlight opportunities for growth and career development to instill hope and motivation among remaining employees.
