The wise dig their wells before the drought and build their arks before the next flood.
In the world of careers, 'droughts' and 'floods' translate as 'divisional closure', 'company bankruptcy', 'takeover bids', 'company sale', 'redundancy', 'irrational board decisions', 'key personnel resignations' or even 'market collapse due to pandemics'.
But what do most of us do when these events overtake us?
We either pretend to ignore it, "I can't do anything about it and it wasn't my fault, so if I do nothing it might go away!" or we panic, "I don't know what to do!"
Obviously the best option is to be prepared for such events before they occur.
At Proteus we believe it is never too late to go through our Career Future Proofing distance learning course, but it’s obvious that it's better to do it sooner rather than later.
If you are well prepared with your 'ark' and your 'well' in place you won't panic, you'll just calmly start to implement your plan and your livelihood will be protected.
