This Isn’t a Webinar—It’s a Live 90-Minute Strategy Lab
This Isn’t a Webinar—It’s a Live 90-Minute Strategy Lab
Led by a Tribal Financial Expert, I’ve built these exact HR contingency plans in real life – under real pressure. I built this plan bespoke for Tribes, and it’s been reviewed and critiqued by foremost Human Resources experts.
Now, I’m teaching you how to customize it for your needs and implement it with speed, strategy, and integrity.
When I was at Cherokee Nation, I led the financial contingency planning for the Nation, including what our HR strategy would be in the event of funding cuts.
I drew from my experiences with a previous employer that did mass layoffs during the 2008 Financial Crisis. I wasn’t laid off, but many of my colleagues were, and the “survivors” were left wondering - are we next?
Employees are our greatest resource in carrying out our missions as Tribes. Most Tribes are staffed with citizens, and our employee base is our relatives, aunties, friends, and subject-matter-experts.
Financially, salaries and fringe are THE largest expense that Tribes have, and if you don’t have plans on what to do if funding falls through - then you are planning to fail.

Why Act Now?
Why Act Now?
Many will wait until it’s too late.
They scramble, break compliance laws, lose valued staff, or make irreversible decisions under pressure.
You don’t have to.
This workshop gives you the plan, the process, and the peace of mind you need right now – not after the fact.
And let’s face it, if you have to put these plans into place, it will be hard from an emotional, physical, and spiritual perspective.
So giving yourself any advance foresight or inspiration will be meaningful if the time comes. (And I REALLY HOPE it never does!!)

A Note from Your Instructor
A Note from Your Instructor
I know what it feels like to bear the weight of responsibility for financial decisions that impact employees. After all, these are our relatives, aunties, cousins, friends, and subject-matter-experts that do the work of our Tribes.
That’s why I’ve spent months creating this plan for you along with the help and support of HR experts that have seen and done it all. This way, you have a framework and a process to protect Tribal employees to the greatest extent possible.
Who knows? You may never have to use this plan. (And I sincerely hope that you do not have to!!)
However, you will have it ready to implement if the time comes.
Time is of the essence and that is why I am rolling this out ASAP.
I look forward to seeing you at the webinar event soon.
Wado,
