Organisational Change and Redundancy: Breaking the News and Beyond

The Employment Redundancy Challenge - Something Management Dread

Making staff redundant is one of the most challenging duties a manager has to face - especially breaking the news to employees. However those who survive a redundancy programme may also experience their own negative reaction to this forced change at work and they need your support too.

The ability to present the bad news of redundancy in the right atmosphere, and manage the differing reactions, marks out any manager as a master of psychological and communication skills.

Delivering the bad news of redundancy is a teachable skill, easily acquired through dedicated training programmes developed by the Carole Spiers Group (CSG) who can claim a niche speciality in managing the "Human Dimension of Organisational Change". With a topical emphasis on redundancy, these programmes are complemented by specialist coaching and counselling services for the person breaking the news, as well as the person receiving it.
