Outplacement & Redundancy Services – 1-1 Programs

Monday, February 25th, 2008

Outplacement and Redundancy services have many benefits for employers and employees. There is quite a bit of flexibility and options available to employers considering offering support to their staff. We work to the employer’s needs and their budget developing a bespoke solution to meet their situation.

1-1 Outplacement Programs

Individual programs are very popular with clients. They are normally offered for senior management and executive where the numbers would be smaller. This is not set in stone and some employers with high numbers affected by redundancy will often offer 1-1 programs over group programs.

What is a 1-1 Outplacement Program?

Outplacement programs offer a tailored solution for the individual. Sessions are completed in 1-1 format addressing needs specific to the individual. Therefore the individual dictates the content.

Typical areas covered include:
• Evaluating current career situation to help individuals understand themselves and provide career clarity. This will support individuals with career direction with the use of career assessment tools.
• CV writing and advice to help individuals market themselves more effectively and improve job application to interview ratio.
• Recruitment Strategies, job search skills and managing the job hunting process. This will prepare individuals for the job market and enable them to maximise performance.
• Interview coaching skills to make an impact at interview.
• Other topics include encouragement & support, self esteem, confidence and work life balance

Outplacement
I had an interesting conversation with an employer about my Outplacement & Redundancy Services. I was pitching for a project and I was up against a UK outplacement firm. It was an interesting conversation as, although I am well able to sell myself and Measurability, I have never had to sell our Outplacement Services. I think I did a good job BUT let’s wait and see.This got me thinking that it is impossible for websites to give a true picture of a Company or its services especially when they are people focused. I suppose that is were Blogs help. If you and your staff are facing the prospect of Redundancy and you want to put some supports in place – Here are the reasons you should pick up the phone and call Measurability.Outplacement & Redundancy Services – Why Measurability?

Ever been at a presentation, course or training led by a dull person in a grey suit?
How did you feel?
Do you take in the information?
Where you actually inspired?

Inspiration is probably more important than the actual information in any Outplacement & Redundancy program. Yet many clients focus on fancy handouts and focus on irrelevant stuff when choosing a provider. A fancy handout never helped anyone get a job!!

I have the handouts and slides BUT more importantly I love what I do – career coaching, support and advice. I am passionate about helping people and inspiring people to succeed. I guess I am selfish in that I get great satisfaction out of what I do and I get paid for it.

I take a hand’s on approach in all Outplacement programs – I don’t just pitch for the business and then send my people to do a job. I will be a key part of the program. You will therefore not get somebody (In a grey suit) doing a job.

Outplacement & Redundancy Services – The Team.

I have much experience in this field – see my profile. I do many projects myself BUT I have a great network of career, recruitment and HR associates in the Industry. This makes a great group of like minded people who will be similar to me. If you like me, you will like the rest of the team.
