Watching the news reports reminds me of how entangled companies are when they are caught in their own games. After years or months gliding along leaving decision making to a team who has not thought of the consequences or has little forethought about how it affects the community the party is now over.
How do companies recoup from their errors in judgment?
What looks like straight talk is nothing more than fluff and the employees believe it.
Employees must look at the big picture and not be lulled into all the small talk about growth and the bottom line. There comes a time when the blanket is uncovered and employees are finally told the truth.
Fear mongering and stress plays a big role in the dictator like managing of those who have been chosen to lead. Big talk about taking care of those who dare to cross paths is just more aggressive behavior.
For those employees who believe in miracles I can tell you the magician is no longer practicing his/her tricks. Once found to be no longer center stage the magic collapses.
Confidence building does not trump people and their needs. Self-serving is not serving others. Ask yourself if your paycheck is more important than your honest integrity. There are other jobs and now is the time to find another niche. Otherwise when the party is over nobody will look out for your best interest.
In this world of business there is a lot of competition and you cannot blame the baby boomers because they are retiring for the most part. Therefore when you add up your talents and revise your resume, you could be on the road to a new job. All this takes time and when you put your energy while thinking out of the box great things can happen for you. Your party is just beginning.
