EP14: What to Do When Your Budget Gets Cut and Your Team Takes the Hit

Hey un-Corporate Leader,

Welcome to Episode 14 of the un-Corporate Leader Podcast — where this week, we're tackling one of the most frustrating realities of leadership right now: what do you do when your budget gets slashed, part of your team gets laid off, and you're left to pick up the pieces?

Globally, we're in a period of contraction. And one of the most damaging patterns that comes with it is decision-makers without context making sweeping changes — changes that create more work, more uncertainty, and more pressure for the leaders left behind.

So, if you're a Director, VP, or middle manager staring down that reality right now, this episode is for you.

In this week's episode, we'll cover:

How to recover when your budget was cut without you ever being invited to the conversation

How to build your own strategic planning and budgeting process — so you're never caught off guard again

Why having the facts and figures at your fingertips is non-negotiable

When and how to plant the seed now to ensure you have a seat at the table next budget cycle

Sit back, relax, and enjoy this week's episode. 🎙️
