7 Critical Mistakes Employees Make in a Downsizing

by Michael Sanders

Organizational downsizings are becoming more the common occurrence rather than the exception. This book presents a list of seven critical mistakes employees make in the face of possible job loss. All seven mistakes can be prevented or even reversed with a bit of tactical and strategic thinking. Use the eight power moves that follow to not only save your job, but give you the tools to make you marketable in the open market. And the open market may be an even better place for you in the end. Your ultimate goal is to become your own “Superhero” and position yourself to ride the downsizing wave rather than go under. The bottom line: “refuse to be a victim.” Win.
