BE PREPARED TO GET FIRED
- 9 million people are currently unemployed
- 600,000 jobs lost in 2003
- 75 % of those Employed are from industries
undergoing ‘creative deconstruction’
- No one is immune. Anyone Who Can Be Fired
Needs a Fallback Position.
The days of 40 years and a gold watch are gone.
The CEO today is not the captain of the ship who puts you in
the lifeboat and
then goes down with the ship. There are no lifeboats in today’s
business culture. You need to prepare your own lifeboat.
FALLBACK POSITION, PREPARING A CONTINGENCY
PLAN FOR THE WORST CASE SCENARIO, a new book by John E. Arnold, provides
personal
and career tools for those who are in line to be fired. He recognizes
that being fired has the impact of “a little death,” and
those fired go through the grief stages of Denial, Anger, Bargaining,
and Depression until they get to Acceptance.
The people who hire you are your friends, but
that’s not
who lets you go. “Negotiate with your friends,” Arnold
suggests. “Negotiate your out on the way in.”
The information in this book helps you prepare for being terminated
so you
- Understand your priorities
- Know your financial situation
- Can negotiate from knowledge
- Can take action to control your future
Having a fallback position
keeps being fired from devastating you and your family.
The hardback
is 6”x 9”, 208 pages, 13 illustrations,
$19.95, Biblio Distribution.
