Thanks for interesting post bri...Dear Mr Vermeulen<br /><br />Thanks for interesting post bringing out through research what my OB and HR professors have always tried to convince me. I just have one related question - Do the effects of downsizing not vary by how dependent a company is on its intellectual capital? Won't an organization in the business of consulting or software where the skill set is higher and the output is dependent directly on people (and less fixed costs) suffer more than one more dependent on technology and rote work. Or,in other words, won't the latter suffer much lesser?Soniahttp://soniachawla.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
