The headlines are staggering -- big tech companies laid off more than 25,000 workers already in 2024 with more anticipated layoffs looming. This session will dissect the balance between the necessity of workforce reductions and the etiquettes that shape the post-layoff perception especially in this day and age where everyone is watching. We’ll address pressing questions—What is the proper way to handle downsizing and how do we hold ourselves accountable knowing it may be captured, shared and potentially go viral? What resources should companies provide their impacted employees? Join us for a thought provoking conversation around steering the complexities of layoffs in the digital age, offering strategic perspectives that take into account a people-first approach.
