Rezensionen

"Madeleine Stevens has produced an important book for teachers, learners and professional practitioners of HR. The book provides an original and comprehensive guide on all aspects of redundancies, and supplements this with practical examples and templates of associated documents. This is in my view an unmissable resource for everyone with an interest and role in managing redundancies." - Professor Jim Stewart, Professor of Human Resource Development, Liverpool Business School

"Restructures and redundancies are often an unavoidable part of an HR professional's working life, but knowing how to carry them out with compassion is vital. Madeleine is an expert on limiting the negative effects of such programmes and brings a fresh perspective on the impact on all individuals involved in the process. This book is sure to be a must read for HR professionals." - Katie Jacobs, Senior Stakeholder Lead - CIPD and business, journalist

"Dr. Madeleine Stevens' book offers a fresh and much needed rethink on the issues around how companies' approach and implement redundancies. It explores positive alternatives to redundancies that limit the emotional impact on employees and the detrimental effect redundancies can have on businesses." - Colin Gosling, Senior Unite Rep and European Siemens representative, Siemens ITS Poole

"At last a book about this difficult topic that is both practical about the process but also deals with the emotional rollercoaster for all participants. Maddy Stevens' compassionate approach is no soft touch, and has the authenticity of hard won experience." - Toby Peyton-Jones, OBE, Former HR Director Siemens UK and Northwest Europe
