Timeline
Support for the hardest days and every day after.
Kora is built both for the restructure and to support people, build culture and maintain performance after it.
-
Embargoed prep
Every messenger rehearsed, not just briefed.
You can’t be in every room, and there’s rarely time to train the leaders delivering the news. With your messaging loaded, execs rehearse the announcement and managers rehearse the notification conversation until they reach the standard.
-
Announcement day
The announcement lands on message.
Messengers who go off-script raise the risk in real time. Your exec walks in rehearsed. Care goes live for every employee, with critical incident support on standby.
-
Notification meetings
A clear, humane conversation in every room.
Leaders do one last rehearsal 15 minutes before, so the message comes in the first sentence and they stay steady under “why me?”. Critical incident support is on site or virtual for anyone who needs it.
-
Outplacement support
Outplacement support sessions for departing employees.
-
Weeks 1–8
The people you kept get a leader who’s ready.
Survivors are doing two jobs and merged teams are tense. Leaders rehearse the survivor 1:1, the first meeting of the merged team and the wellbeing check-in, rather than telling people to harden up. Anyone who struggles books fast, funded care themselves.
-
Review
Show your board the risk was managed.
Departures, sick leave and the engagement pulse come in, and the board wants an answer. Kora gives you one record of who was ready, where risk built up and what you did about it.
-
Every day after
Ready for every hard conversation, not just this one.
Once the change settles, leaders keep using Kora for the conversations that come up every week: performance, conflict, ending employment, coaching high performers and pay requests. When a conversation isn’t in the library, they build their own scenario in minutes.
-
All year
A full-service EAP for everyone, every day.
Your people and their families keep 24/7 support, counselling by video, phone or in person, and specialist care for whatever’s happening at work or at home. No GP referral and no bill.
-
Retention
Crucial support for the teams that stay on.
Your best people might start looking around, and you usually find out when they resign. Instead, leaders rehearse conversations that help clarify options, make it psychologically safe to raise issues, and negotiate within limits so you can keep the people you can’t afford to lose.
-
Culture
Every manager builds culture in each conversation.
Your values are only as real as the way a leader handles a hard moment. When every leader rehearses against your language and your standards, candour, accountability and respect show up consistently across teams, not just in the managers who have the knack.
