Guessing is not a strategy: How to build decision velocity with AI and real-time data
June 10, 2026 | Live Webinar
Layoff announcements continue in most if not all sectors of the economy. When this happens to your organization, you may have to adjust your role from a project manager controlling your project to an organizational leader guiding your workforce through a drastic change.
During such a change, remember to establish effective two-way communications. Interaction between you and your workforce will go a long way to maintaining performance and focus, but you have to prepare to
- answer questions related to the future of the project
- accept feedback respectfully from workers (some of which will take a thick skin)
- disseminate bad news in person
If your leadership skills need some beefing up, now is the time to get it done. The silver lining to a dark global economy is your opportunity to be seen responding as a leader.
