So here’s a tough question for you. Is it possible to conduct a mass layoff in a kind manner?

If you are an educational or library leader listening to this episode, you have either already ended the employment of a team member or will do so at some point in your career. There’s no getting around that unpleasant reality. I’ve made a lot of hard decisions in my career, as we all have. One of the hardest leadership decisions I’ve had to make was when I had to figure out how to lay off several of my team members in a humane manner, following the rules, and without betraying my values or burning out.

Today I’m going to tell you a little bit about that experience, and share the kind leadership principles I learned from it, so can prepare for the next time you have to make a decision like this.
