Tech Grief describes the many career losses IT workers or people who work for technology companies experience and then defines a roadmap to healing, one that embraces the logical/analytical brain while employing tools to engage and heal the emotional pain of loss. The underlying premises are drawn from Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, Kubler-Ross’ grief process and the latest in grief counseling best practices. The introduction of the book describes the phrase “Tech Grief,” which the authors coined. We isolated the concept from the general idea of grief because many people in technology jobs are so focused on left-brained, problem-solving methods that dealing with emotional pain can be incrementally more difficult, more prolonged and less successful.
