Synopsis

Following redundancy many people are lost in a career transition maze and face an emotional roller coaster of a journey. Even those who are highly motivated may find it difficult to know which way to turn. As a result many people adopt a scattergun approach without any real focus or succumb to transition paralysis. In this superbly practical book, career coach Steve Preston shows you how to beat post-redundancy blues or tackle any career change with a process to navigate your way to a brighter future in six simple steps. Written with passion and energy, whether you are a mid-lifer, quarter lifer or in your third age, Winning through Redundancy is packed with energizing exercises to unlock your true potential and boost your self-confidence. There are a host of real life case studies to inspire and a mixture of pragmatic advice and self coaching to help you achieve a successful outcome, ending up doing work you love and leading a fulfilling life. By reading this book you will transform your life following redundancy or if you are looking to change career. You will feel energized; develop a real sense of purpose and focus. People I work with tell me that the clouds will lift giving you clarity, self awareness and a target to aim for. You will be much better equipped to know what is important to you in your life and career moving forward, understand what you have to offer an employer or what you can offer as a business owner, to sell yourself effectively and above all know what it takes to make a successful career change or transition. Once you have developed this inner self awareness you will be in a good position to take the learning and knowledge you have gained into the world of work whatever you decide to do. I will be sharing some of my journey following redundancy. Many of my learning points, as well as some interesting and inspiring case studies, will show you how you can win through redundancy to navigate your way to a brighter future and relaunch your career! Each Chapter relates to a step of my Career Navigation Cycle and has specific exercises and tools which are all part of the process to help you achieve a successful outcome. My aim is to inspire you to get started on your journey and ultimately take the leap of faith to find the right job, career or work for you. Isn't it reassuring to know that, you like me and many of the case studies featured, will also come to love Mondays, enjoy the work you do and achieve a fulfilling life?
