I’d like to introduce you to my friend Diane McClay. When we met, Diane told me her story, which included having a dream job that made her feel as if she was “doing what she was meant to do”. She planned to retire with her company, and the plan was solid…until it wasn’t. After 17 years, Diane unexpectedly lost her job. She felt lost, alone, and unprepared for re-entering the job market. She didn’t even have a resume!
In today’s fast-paced world, employers are adding technology, reducing cost, and finding ways to trim overhead. That includes people, pensions, promotions, and medical benefits. So, what happens if you end up like Diane–without a job, without a plan, and without stability? Are you ready for the unexpected?
