it is often difficult utilizing sound reasoning and theoretical principles in stressful situations. I need your opinion on this, I will be developing a change plan for the corporate headquarters of a large Long-Term Care Organization. I will be moving from a traditional vertical (hierarchical) design to organizational structure(horizontal) to adapt to the rapid changes in consumer needs. this will also make several positions unnecessary.

I need to develop a plan on the reduction in force RIF also known as layoffs that must occur after the organization structural change. how will you decide which job will have to be determined who will be in on the decision making process and how will you notify employees about your decision? remember that horizontal organizations require less middle management not just fewer workers. need your help in figuring this out.
