Workshop Outlines
The Next Steps – A Positive Course of Actions for the post redundancy phase
Facing redundancy at any time in life is extremely difficult and quite often very painful. There are two classic reactions to finding yourself out of a job, one is to just accept the situation, feel sorry for yourself and to do nothing but moan (if this sounds familiar, then this workshop is not for you). The other reaction is to accept what has happened and prepare to move on in a direction that is best for your current situation. This workshop helps you take the positive first steps and you will learn how to prepare your plan for your future.
By participating in this workshop you will learn:
- How to deal with the shock of redundancy
