When you are undertaking any change within your business, you need to ensure you speak to everyone, not just those affected.  You need your business to keep going and everyone focussed. You do not want them worrying and the rumour mill to go into overdrive.

Your employees will need support and reassurance, as much as you can give them.  Meet with them and answer any questions they may have.  Ensure they know who their line manager is, they have an up-to-date job description.

Get them to look to the future too and set them realistic objectives and have them focus on.  Ask for their input as well.

It is important to regularly review everyone’s workload too as initially the work maybe manageable but as business grows so may their work. Some of your team may take on work thinking that this will ensure they keep their job, but you need to ensure they are not drowning.  They are your responsibility.
