outplacement in the modern workplace | Randstad RiseSmart & Lighthouse Research

understand how AI, personalization and other trends are driving the evolution toward a more human career transition experience

There’s never been a time when people have considered and reconsidered their career paths more intentionally. But thanks to AI, unemployment trends, economic factors and more, it’s also never been more challenging for talent to understand how they can determine “what’s next.” At the same time, as more employers face difficult workforce decisions, such as workforce restructuring and layoffs, they need to find ways to create the most human experience possible for their people: one that will help them navigate their uncertain environments —  to reset and move forward with their futures.

Watch this 25-minute educational discussion between Lighthouse Research and Advisory’s Ben Eubanks and Lindsay Witcher, global managing director of Randstad RiseSmart, part of Randstad Enterprise, to learn how AI, social perceptions, talent expectations and shifting markets are changing the way employers consider layoffs and workforce restructuring. Understand what separates the companies that are doing it right from those who end up in the headlines for doing it poorly. 

Witcher and Eubanks outline ways to create as positive an experience as possible during what is always a difficult situation. While many prioritize compliance, cost savings and speed, those companies that put people first are the ones that will build loyalty, protect their brand and support workforce sustainability.
