Lack of productivity

Nothing like a sale of the company in a few weeks to drop morale and productivity. What does MBA school tell you about how to keep people working hard when you will not be their bosses in a few weeks time?

I suggest you remove all of the water coolers(and coffee makers) from the company so that the constant chat about who is going to buy us and what are the layoffs going to look like is kept at a minimum.
