As our world opens back up, people are still very much on edge. With companies continuing to close down and unemployment rates rising, communication with your employees is absolutely critical. Without providing the information people need, employees are at risk of walking down a three-phase process that leads to the opposite of resiliency.

Unexplained Information Appears” title_color=”” title_size=”small”][vc_column_text]It can all begin with a single piece of information that appears without proper explanation. Hysteria and worrying can quickly formulate from a minor change that management personnel may completely overlook.[/vc_column_text][mkdf_section_title title=”2. Disastrous Reasoning Starts” title_color=”” title_size=”small”][vc_column_text]When this data goes unexplained, employees frantically construct a disastrous reason that this information exists. For example – if an office is repainted, an employee may think the business is being sold or someone was fired. [/vc_column_text][mkdf_section_title title=”3.
