Help Employees Land On Their Feet
Monday, March 16th, 2009 by StrategicDirectionIf you are faced with having to downsize, help your team land on their feet. Here are a few things you can do to show your employees you care and have a personal interest in their future:
1. Invest in material to assist with resume/CV writing. This can be in the form of workshops, software or even books.
2. Use internal or external talent to assist with creating formats for resumes and cover letters.
3. If your company has a strict policy against providing references rethink this at least temporarily in order to give the employee the added edge duing the interview process.
Remember employees are people first and they will appreciate your added effort.
