Summary
In today's episode from Jessica's appearance on the Virtual Campfire Podcast: Usually, layoffs are conducted with a long, secretive process by executives and lasting trauma for the company. By dealing with the situation differently -- being transparent with employees about the upcoming layoffs -- things played out for the better. Some people left on their own terms; others became even more loyal to the company. And everyone was better off for the transparent approach.
