How to Save Your Team from Layoffs Strategic Leadership Tips

Описание: When the air at work feels tense—budgets tightening, priorities shifting, and uncertainty creeping into every meeting—leadership changes. Especially for women in leadership, downturns aren’t just operational challenges; they’re high-stakes moments that can redefine your credibility, your team’s future, and your influence.

In this video, you’ll learn how to Pivot Your Team’s Strategy during a downturn so your team isn’t viewed as expendable—but as essential.

This is a practical, evidence-based guide to leading with calm, clarity, and confidence when pressure is high and expectations are higher.

Why This Matters

In uncertain times, the leaders who stand out aren’t louder or harsher—they’re clearer, calmer, and more strategic.

This video gives you tools you can use this week to move your team from at-risk to indispensable—without losing yourself in the process.
