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.
The pace of business is accelerating and the boundaries of the
working day are becoming increasingly blurred. Managing shorter
response times and greater volume forces people to focus on the
immediate and the urgent, often at the expense of proactive or
longer-term issues. Being 'busy being busy' means that there is no
time to question whether there is a good connection between
activity and effectiveness or whether the outcomes achieved are
contributing to the delivery of current goals and objectives. Time
to Think puts an end to all that! Drawing on the author's
leading-edge experience of helping business and sports people to
achieve their own definition of success, Time to Think provides
clarity amidst confusion. Packed with ideas and exercises, its
incisive 'how-to' content provides a realistic approach that will
bring about lasting change. Beginning with a self-scoring skills
analysis and focusing on sound principles and good practice, Time
to Think creates the opportunity to review existing processes,
tools and time utilisation. It addresses prioritisation by
combining the three key steps of goal setting, task management and
proactivity. It looks at delegation and meetings management, and
tackles the contemporary issues of generating personal energy,
managing email and working from home.
A personal code for living a better, happier, more successful kind
of life.
