All employees, especially professional women, watch if a colleague is transitioned out of the organization respectfully and what professional job search support they receive as part of their termination benefit package. An organization can treat their talent fairly, while they are employees and negate all that goodwill when they do not manage the termination well. Done poorly, it could have a negative impact on retaining top-performing female talent, as well as attracting future female talent.
Managing a termination can be a highly emotional event for both the manager and the employee. If not well planned, the termination meeting has the potential to get out of control. We provide a roadmap for individuals to navigate the termination called The Six Steps To Planning and Managing The Termination Skillfully. To best prepare your team, we offer our clients two training options, at no cost:

When people lose their jobs, it is normal to feel hurt, vulnerable or betrayed. Losing a job is one of the three most stressful events one can go through; along with the death of an immediate family member or a divorce, losing a job is a very stressful experience. Grief is a natural response and the range of emotions may include anger, denial, bargaining, and even depression.
A personal job transition coach assists them with the emotional trauma associated with losing their job, helps them evaluate their career goals and options, and works with them in their job search until they are successfully re-engaged, regardless of the difficulty of the search.
Most outplacement services provide limited support and training, but no other outplacement firm coaches the individual until they are successfully re-engaged. We have assisted more than 200,000 people to becoming successfully re-employed and through OI Global Partners we have over 1,000 Career Coaches in 225 offices located in 28 countries.
