Harrisburg, PA, February 18, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Crosswinds Consultants unveils a suite of services to address the growing need for comprehensive, cost effective outplacement services for companies. "Not only is it the right thing to do, it makes good business sense," says Linda Spotts, President of Crosswinds Consultants. Ms. Spotts spent the past eighteen months researching and developing an outplacement service that offers employers and displaced workers what they need.

"We believe in the fundamental thought that it is the employees that make an organization. As an employer, you and your employees made a commitment to each other. When the difficult decisions have to be made regarding all types of downsizing, companies need to and should do the 'right thing.' That means, providing solid career transition for all displaced employees." In these times of economic uncertainty, it was cited by the New York Times that the average worker is taking 5.5 months to land gainful employment. "Once more, demonstrating that outplacement services are more crucial for your former employees than ever," said Linda Spotts.

In today's economy, companies have reduced budgets and are looking for a more cost effective way to provide outplacement services to their laid-off employees. "Career coaching, resume writing, career workshops, and interview preparation is essential to displaced employees. We provide them a launch pad toward becoming gainfully employed," said Ryan Coleman, Lead Trainer and Career Consultant at Crosswinds Consultants. Crosswinds Consultants maintains the human connection with clients by creating a hybrid between traditional outplacement services and personal career and resume coaching to jump-start the process.

Crosswinds Consultants Outplacement programs offer comprehensive, high impact group workshops to leverage the collaborative efforts of all involved while also providing very targeted, personalized coaching for each employee to guide participants through the career transition process. The program also includes, professional resume writing and access to CareerPods, an online career development portal.
