    The Exit Experience During COVID-19: Must Do Better.

    In this episode, the 'exit' experience is in focus. Making lay-offs is tough, but why do companies continue to make the experience even more difficult for people? We explore a different way to approach this scenario to deliver a positive experience. Yes, a positive experience is possible even when colleagues are required to, contractually, leave the business, but: Do employees ever really leave a business anyway?  How can companies better manage lay-offs and redundancies?  Is it possible that this is merely a transitional experience into a stronger relationship? www.hexorganization.com
