Dear Austin Parker,
I do understand why the necessity of restructuring our department, however, I am not agreeable with the idea of laying off most of my staff. The team has worked efficiently and effectively to implement our ambitious plans that were proposed last year. I am of the opinion that laying them off is a big mistake.
I will be more than happy to see you at your convenient time so that we can come up with better ways of developing our department without laying off a lot of people in the process. Please inform me when you have free time to go over my proposal.
Sincerely,
Valeska
