Outplacement Training Program

Why reinvent the wheel? Use our turnkey content to present your session with minimal preparation!

So you’ve done it. You have thought long and hard, met with the executives in your company, examined the books, and now you feel you have no choice except to let some of your valuable staff go. Yes, it is a difficult decision. But it need not be difficult to help them make the transition if you use our one-of-a-kind Outplacement Kit.

We have brought together all of the tools you need to present an outplacement workshop to a group of 5 or 500, incorporating the key knowledge areas today’s workers need guidance as they commence a job search. Let me introduce myself. My name is Marcia Bench, and I have been working with transitioning workers for nearly 20 years. I am the author of this kit, as well as CEO of the Institute for Purposeful Entrepreneurship. I have coached hundreds of employees, from manufacturing workers to health care professionals, executives to sales representatives, lawyers to ministers, to help them clarify their career goals and execute a successful job search. I have also spoken to hundreds of groups at professional conferences and in the media about job change and career clarification.

You get the benefit of all of this experience when you present outplacement services using this kit. Sure, you could write the content yourself. But don’t you have better things to do?? We provide the facilitator’s guide – telling you what to say and when to say it, which Power Point slide to use and when, which page of the Participants Manual to use and when – along with your own CD of over 100 customizable Power Point slides and a suggested schedule for a day-long workshop. Works great for follow-up coaching too!

So if you are laying people off, why should you help these employees with their transition? Studies show that your reputation depends on it! As many as 50-75 percent of laid-off employees end up going back to work for their prior employer when things turn around – but only if they were treated well on the way out the first time! Can you imagine the savings in rehiring prior employees versus training new staff?

We have tested this system in companies including the Fortune 500 with great success. Here is what one customer shared with us:

“I can definitely see the care and forethought you have put into the program and it is nothing less than superb. The materials and resources have been very applicable and are extremely valuable to me as a coach. I consider it a great privilege to have been taught by “the best!”

~Valerie Plis, MCCC
