In principle, rightsizing is a strategic effort to achieve an optimal organizational size.
After yet another poor quarter at Goldbank, the CEO’s announcement of another round of so-called rightsizing did not come as much of a surprise to most of the other managers.
Although rightsizing could, in theory, also mean increasing the workforce in response to anticipated needs of the organization, in general practice the term has become almost a euphemism for downsizing. It is also commonly used to denote adjustments in product size, budgets, and other aspects of an organization not directly concerning the workforce.
Rightsizing je v principu strategická snaha dosáhnout optimální velikost organizace.
Po dalším špatném čtvrtletí banky Goldbank většinu ostatních manažerů příliš nepřekvapilo, že generální ředitel oznámil další kolo takzvaného rightsizingu.
Ačkoli rightsizing by teoreticky mohl znamenat také zvyšování stavů s ohledem na očekávané potřeby organizace, v obecné praxi se tento termín stal téměř eufemismem snižování stavů. Také běžně označuje úpravy velikostí produktů, rozpočtů a dalších aspektů organizace, které nesouvisejí přímo s pracovní silou.
