Retrenchment or Financial Loss – Help!
January 22, 2009 12:17 am Finance, Work + Family, Workplace IssuesThe only consistency at the moment seems to be upheaval and change. Women are relaying to me about their unexpected job losses, business closures and the effect the sudden down turn in trade is having on them both business wise and personally.
For many the increased emotional strain and constant fear of what the future holds is almost too much. It’s during these times that the networks we build become our only safety net. For those facing change it’s really important to remain confident and know that there are people who care about you personally and what’s happening in your corner. Just talking through how you’re feeling about changes happening in your life can be helpful.
But last week across my desk came a great resource that I thought was worth a mention. It’s a user-friendly booklet produced by Beyond Blue in response to the current economic downturn - ‘Taking Care of Yourself After Retrenchment or Financial Loss’. The book is FREE but more importantly it’s an excellent tool for helping women dust off, pick up the pieces and move on to bigger and better things. Share your knowledge of the book with others.
