Companies will continue to employ the minimum number of employees required to maintain operations at the appropriate level during an uneven recovery. That is the easy part of the decision. The tough part is developing answers to the following questions:
- What about the rest of a company’s employees?
- With employees sequestered for the near term, what will you have them do?
Every company has inefficiencies in their business processes and usually don’t have enough time or resources to improve them. Some of your employees, in teams, should work “on the business”. Through the utilization of improvement teams, consider fixing business processes that are broken or that could be more efficient.

The pandemic is causing a Significant Emotional Event (SEE) for everyone, both personally and professionally. SEE’s create a Change Management environment where people want to make and embrace change. It provides the ability for people to look forward and discuss the future of the company and the processes they are responsible for.

Making these processes more efficient will get you in better shape for when the economy comes back. Done virtually, you don’t have to worry about the health of your employees and your business will realize long term benefits.

Best wishes to you, your family and your employees.
