A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard things well
— Jeff Bezos

Outplacement - Cushion the Blow

As an employer of choice, your reputation in the market is all-important. 

Letting go of staff is never easy -  it not only has a negative impact on departing employees, but can adversely affect the morale of remaining staff and also damage your public image. 

Even the departure of mid-level and more junior staff can affect market perception and your ability to hire staff in the future. 

By offering a supportive managed exit, you maintain the departing employees’ goodwill and reputational risks can be minimised.
