| Abstract: | Corporate restructuring can be threatening to a company's employees. But it can also give some of those employees opportunities for career advancement and growth. How survivors view the downsizing over time and what issues need to be confronted are critical questions for executives in downsized organizations. It is necessary to examine how employees interpret and react to a downsizing, the dangers of not adequately responding to their needs. Resolving the core issues could mean reshaping the way people view organizations and their careers. Downsizing may open for survivors new opportunities for career self-management, change the meaning of job security and engender a new kind of loyalty and commitment. |
