Description
Presented by: Catherine Morgan, Career Transition Center, Business Consultant to Consultants, Point A to Point B Transitions Inc.
Losing your job can take a toll on your emotional and physical wellbeing. There is a grieving process that most people go through after a layoff. It is completely normal to experience anger and denial and giddiness - and every other emotion.
However, this also is a great opportunity to step back and evaluate what you have done in the past, and what you would like to do in the future. It is a time to take inventory of what worked and what didn’t work for you. It is a time to reconnect with your purpose and values. It is a time to consider what the right next step is.
In this talk we will explore:
-
Constructive grieving and ways to heal
-
Techniques to uncover the information you need to determine your right next step
-
How to keep yourself out of the emotional dips that come with unemployment
-
How to stay focused and on track with your job search or launching a business
This talk will help you to see that a layoff can be a time of infinite opportunity and possibility. It will give you the tools you need to find your confidence and focus, and to move forward.
