PWN Copenhagen: Leading Through Uncertainty: Supporting Teams During Layoffs

DjøfGothersgade 133

In recent months, many companies in Denmark have faced restructuring and layoffs, creating uncertainty across teams and organizations.

As leaders and professionals, it can be difficult to navigate the emotional and practical challenges that come with such transitions — not only for those directly affected but also for those who remain. This event aims to open an honest conversation about leadership, empathy, and resilience during times of change. 
Through a panel discussion, we’ll share tools, perspectives, and real experiences on how to support teams and oneself before, during, and after layoffs.

During this session, participants will gain practical insights on how to: 
 -Maintain trust and communication even when rumors of layoffs or change create uncertainty. 
 -Support team members emotionally, helping them feel seen, valued, and connected. 
 -Manage your own stress and emotions as a leader, so you can show up with steadiness and empathy. 
 -Rebuild motivation and confidence within teams after challenging transitions. 

The atmosphere will be warm, supportive, and constructive - focused not on dramatizing difficulties, but on sharing experiences and strategies that help us feel more equipped and connected as a community. This session is especially valuable for PWN Copenhagen members and guests — professionals, managers, and entrepreneurs who want to lead with empathy, clarity, and resilience in times of change.
