#024 - We’ve seen a lot of layoffs in the tech industry. Whatever the reasons might be, it can be one of the lowest points in your career and your life. Whilst our natural reaction is to find another role as quickly as possible especially if finances are a concern for you, using this transition to stop, reflect and recalibrate your career trajectory can help you grow and find the next step that aligns with your values and gives you the joy and meaning you seek. In this episode, Design Leader and Coach, Kate Pincott, shares her step-by-step guide to do just that.
In this episode:
- Accepting the circumstance and negative emotions that come with it
- Reframing the situation
- Identifying your deeper needs
- Dealing with rejections
- Reaching out and connecting with others
- Using crisis as an opportunity
- Bringing joy back
- And much more!
