Coping and navigating job loss and change

Managing change is one of the most challenging activities anyone can take on at work. Job loss is especially difficult, and often out of our control. We will be introducing techniques to cope with the emotional impact of job loss while building resilience for the future. This session is suitable for people at all stages of their careers who are navigating change, seeking direction, or simply wanting to feel less alone in the process.

The session draws on =mc Learning’s Navigating Change and Healthy Thinking programmes. Our consulting experience and training programmes have helped a wide range of large and small charities to develop effective change programmes. We’ll also be sharing our personal experiences and stories of how we’ve navigated challenging times in our careers.

Our aim here is not to pretend that job loss is easily dealt with, or that you need to simply turn on a positive mindset. Instead, you’ll spend time reflecting on your own experience, getting comfortable with discomfort, and seeking ways forward.

1. Explore the challenges and opportunities that job loss can bring using self-reflection
