Are you keeping yourself "safe" from the next round of layoffs?
Our clients are (and we hope you are too).
No, layoffs are NOT a thing of the past.
Since the beginning of August, we've seen news reports that:
- CVS Health will be cutting 5000 jobs
- Biogen will be eliminating 1000 positions
- Bristol Myers Squibb and Johnson & Johnson will be making their second round of job cuts
- Dozens of biotech companies preparing for their 3rd round of RIFs
Even United Health's Optum isn't immune...and that's just healthcare!
So what can you do to keep yourself "safe" from being let-go?
Well, my friends there's no single-solution.
And truthfully, none of what we're about to share will make a difference IF your performance isn't "Solid Performer" or better.
So with that said, below are a list of actions you should start doing today and build into a routine:
- upskilling yourself with new tools, technologies and skills relevant to your organization
- networking with individuals from other departments
- branding yourself online and across targeted media outlets
- leading projects and teams
- participating in ERG meetings
"Sounds like work" we hear you say.
Yes AND if you love working for the company you're with now, we'd say it's worth it.
Wouldn't you?
