You’ve made the very challenging decision to downsize your workforce. It wasn’t easy. But nonetheless, here you are, preparing to lay off a percentage of your staff. You know, if this process isn’t handled properly, it could cause a huge disruption to your Saas business (and affect more folks down the road).  

More than 81,000 people have been laid off from the tech sector worldwide this year, including thousands at Canadian companies, and further cutbacks are likely. As a Founder/CEO or senior operator, how can you navigate big, tricky changes (such as downsizing) and how can you gracefully overcome obstacles that set you up for success in the long term? 

Join Founders, Miranda Lievers, Co-Founder and COO at Thinkific and Kris Hartvigsen, CEO + Founder at Dooly as they have a candid conversation about their layoffs. They’ll talk about what they went through, how they did it, what they regret looking back, the advice they’d give to other founders and exec teams, and more.
