Episode 98: How to Get Laid Off

You can’t avoid the headlines about the massive number of people who are getting laid off in the tech industry. In this episode, Dr. Janel Anderson analyzes the substantial layoffs in this sector and offers some fresh insights. If you are laid off (or want to be), she’s got some advice for you, including what to do, what not to do, and when to ignore other people's feedback. If you are on the other side of the desk, planning and initiating the layoffs for others, she’s got some advice for you too: how to share the news with humility, integrity, and respect. She shares examples of companies who got it right and those who got it terribly wrong. She also distills some business lessons of rapid growth and the course correction that invariably happens at some point after rapid growth.
