24.01.2022 Staring into the eyes of a hardworking, loyal employee and breaking the news of their redundancy would have to be one of the most difficult parts of a HR professionals job. That is why the topic of outplacement is so important, it is the last act a HR professional can do for an employee in need, and often the last memory a transitioning employee will take with them when they leave.
24.01.2022 In Good to Great Jim Collins said to Get the right people on the bus, the wrong people off the bus, and the right people in the right seats. While you can make every effort to ensure the right people are in your business, the right people may not be in the right seats. As a result, their skills and abilities can be under utilised or overestimated. As you change your processes, policies and procedures and look more closely at your organisational structure and culture, you may find that you dont have the right people in the right roles, or that some roles are no longer needed. www.turningpointpartners.com.au

20.01.2022 In an ongoing crisis, clear communication is more important and more difficult than when things seem normal. Employees and customers are hungry for information. While we often communicate what needs to happen and how, we rarely provide a reason why.
20.01.2022 Establish what you will say in the separation conversation. You want to be clear, factual and objective but without being cold. Unplanned redundancies can be traumatic for transitioning employees, and they deserve to be handled with sensitivity and compassion. Genuinely acknowledging the experience, expertise and efforts of your transitioning employees and showing gratitude for their commitment to your company should also be a part of the conversation. www.turningpointpartner...s.com.au #change #changemanagement #workplacechange #changeleadership #hr #redundancy #outplacement #careertransition #transition #turningpointpartners
20.01.2022 Outplacement is as much for your reputation as it is for your exiting employees career benefit. So dont give your exiting employee a card with your outplacement providers details and say give them a call if you want help. Ideally, the employee should be introduced to their career coach immediately after their meeting with you. This will allow your employee the opportunity to debrief after their meeting, ask questions, build a relationship with their coach and commence th...eir outplacement program immediately. www.turningpointpartners.com.au #change #changemanagement #workplacechange #changeleadership #hr #redundancy #outplacement #careertransition #transition #turningpointpartners

19.01.2022 Employee leaving? Through the handover, make sure you dont just capture what your transitioning employee is doing, you also need to document how they are doing it. Too many times, employees leave an organisation without communicating the processes, workflows and shortcuts they have used to get the work done efficiently. Not capturing the how could result in your remaining team operating at a significant disadvantage once the employee leaves. www.turningpointpartners.com.au

18.01.2022 Workplace planning has long been defined as having the right people in the right position with the right capabilities at the right time, to help you grow and strengthen your company. But in the year of COVID-19, workplace planning for many is coming from the point of surviving not thriving. While government support has been extended through Job Keeper, now is the time to start planning for necessary organisational change to save you operating from the point of urgency and pan...ic, later. To help you with your planning, here are five questions to get you thinking about your future workforce and considering if and when is the right time for restructure in your organisation. #workplaceplanning #change #changemanagement #restructure #redundancy #leadership #management #humanresources #hr #employees #planning #covid
18.01.2022 Like any change activity, the success of the separation conversation is dependent upon your level of preparation. With preparation, you can give your transitioning employees the support and closure they need, and make the separation conversation more comfortable for you or your manager. Take the time to think about what needs to be organised before separation day. If needed, talk to HR or your employment lawyer about what should be said in the meeting and arrange for your outplacement partner to help your transitioning staff immediately on the day. These preliminary steps will ensure that the day runs as smoothly as possible and will help to minimise the anxiety you may be experiencing. #change #changemanagement #workplacechange #changeleadership #hr #redundancy #outplacement #careertransition #transition #turningpointpartners

12.01.2022 Decades of scientific research show that stress and anxiety are prevalent problems at work, contributing to deficits in employee morale, well-being, and productivity. While anxiety is caused by a range of factors, including issues unrelated to peoples jobs, one common and pervasive cause is something specific to the workplace: incompetent leadership.
11.01.2022 The pool of available talent is suddenly both changing and expanding, so, how should visionary leaders go about capturing this once-in-a-century hiring opportunity?
10.01.2022 While your outplacement provider will be engaged primarily to help mitigate your risk and transition your employees, they can also provide valuable advice on handling the separation conversation and managing the wellbeing of transitioning employees. Talk to them early in the process to help schedule separation day in a way that will be most beneficial to your transitioning employees and reduce the stress for everyone involved. www.turningpointpartners.com.au... #change #changemanagement #workplacechange #changeleadership #hr #redundancy #outplacement #careertransition #transition #turningpointpartners

10.01.2022 To appropriately support your employees during this time, its important to have a greater understanding of what they will be experiencing and feeling upon learning about their involuntary redundancy.
09.01.2022 When going through redundancy, transitioning employees can often experience mistrust and a range of emotions from embarrassment to betrayal. This can make employees close up during in-house outplacement programs and become stuck in the trauma of the event unable to focus on moving forward in their job search. An external partner has the right experience and the right emotional distance. www.turningpointpartners.com.au... #change #changemanagement #workplacechange #changeleadership #hr #redundancy #outplacement #careertransition #transition #turningpointpartners
09.01.2022 Authentic leadership emphasises building credibility through honest relationships and ethical dealings. It fosters integrity within your organisation. But if you were to look closely at the way staff are hired and promoted in your company, what criteria they are selected on and the traits and values that are encouraged in your leaders, could you emphatically say that they are enabling authentic leadership? www.turningpointpartners.com.au

08.01.2022 In most cases, an employee wont see a redundancy coming let alone know what needs to happen after it. So dont make the mistake of assuming an exiting employee knows what to expect. Being in shock, they will likely not have the mental clarity to ask the questions they need to, it will be up to you to walk them through it. For this reason, it is crucial that you explain the process they will no go through as they leave the company. www.turningpointpartners.com.au... #change #changemanagement #workplacechange #changeleadership #hr #redundancy #outplacement #careertransition #transition #turningpointpartners
08.01.2022 HR isnt easy. Dont compound it further by not showing appreciation, giving recognition or neglecting their intrinsic motivators. Make sure your HR team are regularly praised and rewarded for their hard work and dedication to the company. www.turningpointpartners.com.au

04.01.2022 Let’s face it; staring into the eyes of a hardworking, loyal employee and breaking the news of their redundancy is never an easy conversation to have, but there are some ways to reduce the sting and ensure they have a smooth career transition.
04.01.2022 With the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression upon us, redundancy is a sad inevitability of COVID-19. No one enjoys making employees redundant, but in the middle of a pandemic when the job market is competitive, and many families are doing it tough? That makes it a lot harder. Here are some tips to help you navigate the risks and complexities of making employees redundant through a pandemic. #change #changemanagement #workplacechange #changeleadership #hr #redundancy #outplacement #careertransition #transition #turningpointpartners
04.01.2022 When it comes to outplacement, human beings deserve a human approach. Heres why face-to-face redundancy conversations help you, the employee and the organisation.
04.01.2022 Every leader knows that communication during a crisis is critical. When leaders communicate with urgency, transparency, and empathy, it helps people adjust to the constantly changing conditions crises bring. A tone of urgency encourages people to make quick decisions to mitigate harm. Transparency builds trust in leaders and conveys respect for employees by implicitly recognising them as capable of coping with what is being shared. And showing empathy and conveying a compelling message of hope can foster resilience in facing the challenges that lie ahead.
04.01.2022 Leadership isn't always about heading in the direction everyone wants to go, but taking the company and the team where it needs to be. www.turningpointpartners.com.au
04.01.2022 Setbacks and adversity are inevitably accompanied by negative emotions. Someone who has lost a big account, been passed over for promotion, or produced poor quarterly results is bound to feel disappointment, frustration, or anger. Most leaders, confronted with an upset team member, view negative emotions as a contagion to contain before it infects the broader team. Or they see them as a problem to be solved quickly so that people can return to normal. But leaders have the opportunity to help team members channel their negative emotions and turn them into powerful tools.
02.01.2022 Organising support for your transitioning team is a given, but they arent the only ones who will be affected. Whoever conducts the separation meeting, you or your managers may also need support or at the very least a debrief depending on how the conversation goes. The remaining team should also have support to ensure your organisation gets back to business as usual as quickly as possible. In addition to losing colleagues and experiencing survivors guilt, your remaining staf...f can also feel the stress and pressure of an increased workload with fewer people available to help. www.turningpointpartners.com.au #change #changemanagement #workplacechange #changeleadership #hr #redundancy #outplacement #careertransition #transition #turningpointpartners
