It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets. — Voltaire
Using layoffs as a business strategy is no strategy at all. Layoffs don’t work. They don’t create value.
We want to work for managers who create things. That’s a responsibility of CEOs. I’m tired of the celebration of CEOs who parrot “People are our most important asset” then discard those assets like yesterday’s smelly garbage every time their stock declines 25 cents.
Want to know the secret of getting employee engagement? Build things. And remember they’re people, not assets.
