From the founder of "layoff survivor sickness" an updated
edition of a book for today's downsized workforce

Thoroughly revised and updated, David Noer's classic book about
downsized organizations has never been more relevant. Reports of
the most recent layoffs are making the front pages of our
newspapers with frightening regularity. And massive downsizing
continues to reshape the face of American business. But what about
those who remain behind? Healing the Wounds provides an
antidote to the widespread malaise on the American business scene
left in the wake of workforce reductions. Drawing on case studies
and original research, David M. Noer-an expert frequently quoted in
major media such as The Wall Street Journal and
Fortune on the topic of layoffs and layoff survivor
sickness-provides executives, human resource professionals,
managers, and consultants with an original model and clear
guidelines for revitalizing downsized organizations and the
employees left behind.

* Offers thoroughly revised edition of a book about layoffs and
those who are left behind

* Filled with relevant case studies and recent research

* Written by David Noer an acclaimed expert on the topic

companies

Rezensionen

"You've survived a round of layoffs (or two or three) at work. So why do you feel as bad as if you'd been laid off yourself? You might be suffering from what author and consultant David Noer calls "layoff survivor sickness," a toxic blend of anger, survivor guilt, fear and anxiety that can cause sleepless nights, sinking morale and plummeting productivity."
