Description
Summary:Healing the Downsized Organization is for managers and employees who must make sense of dramatically changed workplaces after reengineering, restructuring, or downsizing. Here are "best practices" from those who are successfully reinventing their organizations and re-creating healthy workplaces. Documented examples from companies whose executives, managers, and employees are bouncing back from this challenge reveal how they minimized pain during downsizing and discovered promising possibilities for changed employer/employee relationships.
Dramatic profiles of five organizations (representing manufacturing, media journalism, education, and health care) provide lessons you can practice today, whether downsizing is unfolding now or looms in the future. From interviews with CEOs, managers, and employees, you will understand how individuals at all levels handled the tension between personal and organizational goals, managed the human struggles, and achieved victories as they cut costs and redeployed resources to face competition or changing market conditions.
