With all the buzz surrounding the new movie “Up in the Air” I’ve put it on my must see movie list for the Holidays. I’m particularly interested because in today’s business environment, these situations are more real than fiction. From what I’ve read about the storyline, George Clooney plays a corporate downsizing expert who travels from city to city laying off employees for bosses that were too cowardly to do it themselves. With the film spotlighting a practice that many managers will eventually have to face, I am particularly interested to see what can be learned or shared from this. Tune in after the Holidays with my take on this form of corporate downsizing.
