About this listen

In the short term, layoffs seem logical and look great on paper, however, in the long term, these organizations will be trading short-term safety over long-term profitability.

There are all kinds of reasons why companies should and should not do layoffs, including strategies to avoid layoffs. We will talk about some strategies to avoid layoffs, but mainly, we will focus on the long-term damage that will fall on an organization if they believe layoffs are their only answer.

Very few CEOs have taken the less-traveled route when dealing with layoffs by stating very directly that they will not be participating in any layoffs. Why? Because layoffs produce a mirage that organizational leaders believe will resolve their short-term struggles. However, what results is a larger long-term destruction of the remaining employees and the rest of the organization.
