In an incredibly insensitive e-mail to GCU all staff  the GCU OD department are now publicly advertising workships for line-managers on ‘handling difficult conversations’.

Described as ‘a range of resources available to staff to support during the restructuring process’ the e-mail image below is  perhaps ‘worth a thousand words’, or at least more than a thousand management claims that they are aiming to lift the threat of compulsory redundancies if and when possible. If this was honestly the case, then why the line manager workshops?
