Recently, Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky talked about the importance of leadership visibility during layoffs.
Speaking in a TED podcast, he discussed his actions when the company carried out job cuts in 2020, such as an “emotional” layoff letter to employees and being present at an all-hands meeting when it came to layoffs.
Too many employers have a “pretty inhumane” ways of laying off employees, he said: “It seems like a human being didn’t write it. It feels… like an AI prompt or something.”
