Outplacement Services That Protect Your Brand and Employees
An outplacement coach makes all the difference.
We Help You Conduct Flawless, Compassionate Layoffs & Minimize Risks to Your Brand
Employers offer outplacement to employees affected by involuntary separations. As laid off employees exit, emotions can run high. Leaving employees “high and dry” can tarnish your brand and ultimately, negatively impact your retention and hiring efforts. IMPACT Group understands the careful steps that must be taken when conducting an employee layoff.
What’s the Business Rationale for Outplacement?
Investing in outplacement when laying off an employee can transform former employees into brand ambassadors, reduce unemployment expenses, minimize legal risk and promote positive morale for the remaining workforce. Plus, you’ll leave the door open for redeployment. The benefits certainly outweigh the modest cost.
It’s No Secret: Our Outplacement Coaches Set Us Apart
We hire the best. We offer ongoing professional development and we continuously assess coach performance. And lastly, our leaders perpetuate a strong, consistent coaching culture. Simply said: Coaches only succeed at IMPACT Group when they have the same passion the rest of us have. We’re here to help people transform and transition.
HR Leaders Rely on IMPACT Group for Flawless Outplacement
“Foot Locker has used IMPACT Group’s Outplacement Services for several years. They have consistently provided a high level of service. They have been highly successful in helping our employees transition into new roles. We consider ourselves fortunate to have such a great partner.”
The Danger of Low-Quality Outplacement
A “thin” outplacement service can make employees feel even worse about the separation. Employers that don’t offer high-quality outplacement coaching and services are likely to be subjected to various in-person and online rebuke. “After 10 years, this is how they treated me.” Such comments evoke powerful emotions and erode trust in your employer brand. With 93% of organizations worried about talent retention, outplacement is worth the investment to protect your brand and help retain your remaining staff when laying staff off.

What Do Our Participants Think?
“Working with my coach at IMPACT Group was truly inspiring. She was supportive of my transitional space and was brilliant at formulating questions to help me move beyond my perspective. This allowed me to explore opportunities outside of my current mindset which opened up a lot more employment possibilities for me.”
-Zina Gleason
“I came to know my coach during a very difficult time. He was patient, attentive, and through our regularly scheduled meetings; helped me develop a networking strategy as well as craft an impressive resume which told my story, highlighted my strengths and career successes. My coach was a valuable resource and I couldn’t imagine going through that experience without his help.”
-Gary Ganaway
“My coach provided specific insights into tailoring my resume and cover letters, but most importantly, he helped me polish my interviewing skills—where I felt the weakest. The one-on-one support, especially being able to talk through my most challenging interview scenarios, along with the helpful webinars, gave me renewed hope. Thankfully, I landed a new position just a few months after my initial layoff.”
