Adapting the employer brand to attract talent

In this episode, we discuss the topic of adapting employer branding to attract and retain talent, as well as managing legal disputes.

Restructuring and workforce reductions: supporting the company and employees

Preparing your managers like high-level athletes is key

With Anne we notably discussed:

• The challenges and must-dos during the different phases of restructuring projects.
• Supporting employees in complex corporate restructuring contexts.
• The decisions to be made and the arbitrations to be carried out during redundancy plans.

I think there are many benefits to asking yourself a lot of questions, and sometimes asking yourself the same question 15 times on a subject.

We sincerely thank Anne Le Bruchec for her time and insightful advice. To learn more, we invite you to listen to the full podcast episode. Don't forget to join us on LinkedIn to follow our upcoming discussions.
