Emma Thompson from CE People said: “If you are a good
leader, you will have built attachments with your staff . An unbiased, neutral HR expert sees things diff erently and will be able to have diffi cult conversations on your behalf whilst also ensuring correct procedures are followed. “But there doesn’t always have to be a negative outcome from
assessing your structure. Sometimes an employee will be under- performing because their role isn’t challenging them, or they need some training, which is why business owners should go back to basics and put structure fi rst and foremost.” For businesses it’s about understanding the drivers, assessing the
actual or potential increase in costs and thinking ahead. Adjusting mindsets from the top down will help create stability and through that, improve productivity and engagement. Having a good strategy in place allows for well-thought-out conscious decisions that are good for the company as a whole. Claire said: “One thing we will never take lightly is the fact that
our business is all about people, and how much the decisions we help clients make could aff ect people’s lives. We want our clients to give themselves the space and time to think about it and consider what works best for their business. It might mean diffi cult decisions or conversations, but it can also open up new opportunities for their workforce.” Emma added: “Change is always diffi cult, and it can cause
uncertainty among other employees if a role is made redundant. If they see someone exit the business, they may all start to think that the company is in trouble and that their jobs might be next. By handling the situation professionally, going through the correct procedures and explaining what is happening as much as you they can, business owners and managers can avoid people becoming worried or disenchanted. If your structure is right, your people will deliver, and the company will grow and evolve.”
