[Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives.

Millions of mid- to late-career professionals are wondering why our careers are dying. We've been fired, downsized, job-eliminated, or we've left work voluntarily to raise children, care for loved ones, or go to school It takes twice as long to get hired, and usually for far less money than we were making. Is it age discrimination? Maybe. But it’s not that simple. So many of us have lagged on skills and technology, shrugged off social media, or ignored the rate of change and let younger people become the face of our profession’s future. Our “track record” really doesn’t matter. We want to come back, but we aren’t ready. Coming Back offers clear advice, including: • STOP PLAYING THE VICTIM, even if you are one. • BRAND YOURSELF AS A CHANGE DRIVER who studies trends and studies independently so you are diving into change, not reacting to it. • CALL IN THE CHITS. It is time to go guerrilla and bluntly ask for help from people who can get you what you want and need. • TELL INTERVIEWERS about what you will do—don’t rely on what you have done. • STOP GROUSING about “those millennials” and start working with them. • BOUNCE BACK from a layoff or firing. Coming Back shows how you can save a career if still employed or get one back if cast out. Fawn Germer, one of the nation’s most popular leadership experts and global motivational speakers, has personally interviewed more than three hundred CEOs, senior executives, professors, lawyers, organizational experts, industry leaders, and professionals. The result is a tactical, tough-love call to action: to learn, re-tool, connect, grow, and get ready to work again.

Download or read book Depression and Job Loss written by Henry Lee and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-28 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Losing a job is already a very difficult pill to swallow. However, the recent surge of COVID-19 in 2020 has arguably exacerbated this situation for many. This pandemic has led many of us to lock ourselves within the concrete walls that we call home and has affected almost all the job sectors which resulted in job loss for many. These are the situations that make people realize that money is a necessary resource to survive. More than 20 million jobs were lost in America in April 2020 generally because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many Americans are encountering surprising employment misfortune for the first time in their life. All layers of society are affected: lower class, middle class, and upper class. But the class of society that suffers the most is the "middle class". Now, you may say that at such times everyone is affected whether rich or poor but when things get worse the metric is changed from "who is affected" to the "extent of effect" and in my perspective, that is the most in the middle-class people. The first thought that occurs to anyone who loses his job is the fear of not having enough money to buy the essential utilities for the family. Then enters the stress and anxiety as in any other situation he/she may find some of the other jobs but in this situation, it becomes more difficult as very few organizations are ready to take new employees. Understandably, you may have been feeling depressed lately because of losing your job. Do you feel that the "blues" are getting serious and you're starting to consider yourself depressed? Depression makes you feel helpless, but we are extending a hand to help you overcome this problem. You may not see the light amidst the storm, but we are telling you that there is hope for anyone. We all have a right to live full lives and have control of our emotions. Depression shouldn't be a hindrance to living a fulfilling, satisfactory, meaningful existence. This guide is for anyone suffering from depression and intends to escape the emotional burden. This guide is organized in such a way that you would get concrete steps and guides on how to handle depression following a job loss. Follow these steps one at a time to ensure that you are making progress. This guide can and will help anyone overcome depression in a short period. It will serve as a guide in order to help anyone lift the burden of depression off his or her shoulders. All that you need is the initiative to combat depression and reclaim a fulfilling life.
