How can HR drive better business margins during an economic slowdown?

Today’s talent landscape finds itself at an interesting point in time. On the one hand, reports highlight how close to 15,708 employees have been laid off by 44 startups across India, along with mega IT companies such as Amazon and Twitter also partaking in this.
