You've just been informed that your role is being eliminated. You are shocked, perhaps devastated. You were told your team would be unaffected. You've worked harder than you've ever worked in the last year. This is a first for you. You've NEVER been laid off, fired, or anything of the sort. You've been a star performer all your career. A bit of panic sets in. It's not even the money for you. You’re doing quite well financially having surpassed $150K in base some time ago. It’s more a sense of embarrassment that this happened. It’s the fact that you know deep down you haven't been building relationships like you should have been. And who could blame you? You’ve had a ton on your plate both at work and at home. So what next? How do you handle this? In this week's podcast episode, I discuss 2 simple steps to take if you were impacted by lay offs and are interested in your next role.
