You’re told you have to downsize
your department/division/company.
Who do you let go?

Harvey Mackay in We Got Fired! advises
“When a smart boss fires someone
the first question they should ask is NOT:
How do I feel about this person working for me?

The first question they should ask IS:
How would I feel about this person if
he or she were working for my competitor?”

He also points out that the
“best time to hire people is during a downturn
when everyone else is firing them.”
