Career Resilience: What's Your Plan?  

We have been talking about team and organisational resilience, but let's focus on career resilience for a moment.

Career resilience brings a different dimension to the discussion on resilience, but it is no less important.

For the individual, career resilience can make the difference between: 

Dragging your feet to work Vs Waking up each morning eager for work
A dead-end job Vs Career progression
Retaining your job Vs Being retrenched
Being swamped by change Vs Thriving on change
Getting stuck in a career transition Vs Seizing the opportunity to reinvent yourself
Regressing in your career Vs Finding a way forward and creating your own pathways if there are none
 
 

Now, more than ever, career resilience is not an option!

LifeWorkz has been advocating resilience since 2004, long before it became a buzzword in this economic recession.

There is actually a body of research that has been done on resilience - what builds resilient individuals, resilient careers, resilient teams, and resilient organisations.

This research shows that resilience is not an inborn trait, but a characteristic or ability that can be built up - or eroded - by our choices, actions and behaviours.

 

What does this mean in practical terms?

It means:

  • You can choose to be resilient.
  • There are concrete action steps you can take to build resilience into your life and career.
  • There are resilience-building strategies you can leverage on for career success.

To help PMETs build career resilience, LifeWorkz will be offering a public run of Building Career Resilience on May 22.

In just half a day, participants will:

  • Assess your current resilience level
  • Develop a pro-active career management plan
  • Learn to navigate your way through a career transition
  • Discover and explore career options you didn't know you had
  • Create new pathways for career success
  • Develop personal strategies for managing change and navigating towards success.

 

Do you know someone who needs career resilience?

Then do them something only a friend would. Tell them about our upcoming Building Career Resilience programme! Or better still, sign them up for it!

 

Is it for me too?

If you are in a stable job, you may not feel that you are in need of career resilience. Nothing could be further from the truth!

Career resilience is about pro-actively managing your career and positioning yourself to seize opportunities, so that you can advance your career and achieve your goals --- even in tough times!

 

How much is career resilience worth?

How much are you willing to invest in your own career resilience? You are already investing your time, energy and commitment in your career on a daily basis. Wouldn't you want to ensure, as the saying goes, that the ladder you are climbing is leaning against the right wall?

How much do you think career resilience (and your career success) is worth?

  • A million bucks?
  • A year's salary?
  • $10,000?

Anyone who has ever been in a career transition knows that career resilience is worth all that, and a whole lot more.

Most personal development courses would cost at least ten times of our seminar fee, if note more. But we want this to really benefit individuals, hence we are keeping the fee affordable.

 

How much is career resilience worth?

What is really invaluable in this seminar will be the opportunity to learn from experienced career coaches who have personally navigated through a mid-life career transition, and who have successfully reinvented themselves for success and significance.

That's what's in store for you at this seminar, and I am really excited and looking forward to it!

To help individuals find success and significance, and to see the outcome and results playing out in their individual lives and families --- that's what gives meaning to what we do at LifeWorkz.

LifeWorkz --- It's all about making life work!

Here's to your career resilience!
