The US and the rest of the globe are becoming more aware of an approaching recession. Large-scale layoffs are being discussed in the headlines, with organizations suspending recruitment attempts or reducing employees through mass layoffs. As employees grow more apprehensive about the stability of their positions, and about what’s coming up in the near future, this only serves to increase their insecurity. To avoid an environment of mistrust, businesses must work on improving their culture, and employee morale, and ensure that they are upfront and honest about their intentions.
In this episode, we talked about culture building during the recession with our guest speaker Sunanda Banerjee, Head of Talent Development, L&D at Hindware.
