Constant change is not easy.

Can feel like a rollercoaster ride.

Sometimes we will feel like we want to tap out and get off the ride.

I get it!!

Change can come in many ways:

  • Corporate transformations
  • Acquisitions
  • Mergers
  • Re-structure
  • Re-org
  • Layoffs
  • Hiring freezes
  • New leadership
  • Pay increase freezes
  • Opening and closing offices
  • Hyper growth
  • Lack of structures / systems

Tips:

  1. Deep breath
  2. Re-focus
  3. Set up ways to remind yourself of #2
  4. Try to understand why all the changes are happening
  5. Make your skillset known
  6. Stay the course
  7. Offer to help
  8. Be genuine and authentic
  9. Pause, slow down, reflect
  10. Evaluate - with all the changes, is this still a good fit for you?
  11. Keep positive / upbeat / optimistic
  12. Take the opportunity to learn new things
  13. Determine if you want to or need to set up new goals / change course
  14. Talk through and resolve any issues or struggles
  15. Understand if what you are measured on, your KPIs, are changing or staying the same
  16. Recognize when you've hit your max - take a break
  17. Prepare for what you can
