Avoiding a Layoff Great Tip to Avoid a Job Search

Avoiding a Layoff â€" Great Tip to Avoid a Job Search I saw a very cool point from Susan Irelands blog, where she links to a Vault video with advice on avoiding a layoff.   From Susan Irelands post: Heres a point I especially liked: If you think your company might be heading for a round of lay-offs, sit down with your manager and ask what project is most important to the company right now. Then try to get involved in that project as your primary responsibility. If youre working on something thats of secondary importance to the survival of the company, youre more likely to get laid off. If youre working on a primary project, youre less apt to be sent packing. Brilliant! Heres the video: Thanks Susan Ireland!
