If you’re a senior executive preparing for or recovering from layoffs, you already know the truth. It is not the cuts that damage organizations. It is how they are handled. When trust fractures, proactivity collapses, execution slows, and your best people quietly start looking elsewhere.
In this episode, Alex D. Tremble breaks down how executive teams can navigate layoffs with clarity, dignity, and strategic intent, so you protect trust today and preserve execution capacity for tomorrow.
You will learn:
- Why poorly executed layoffs create long-term cultural and operational damage
- How to communicate hard news without gaslighting and avoid the common mistakes that erode trust
- How to protect dignity for those leaving and psychological safety for those who remain
- Strategic questions every senior executive must answer before deciding who to cut
- Alternatives to layoffs many leaders overlook that can preserve trust and talent
- A real coaching example showing what compassionate, high-clarity executive leadership looks like in practice
This episode is for C suite leaders, senior executives, VPs, and Division Presidents running $50M–$750M organizations who are tired of carrying the emotional and operational weight of difficult decisions alone.
Listen now to rethink how your executive team navigates its hardest moments.
