Unfortunately, Margaret’s experience is far from unique. Sudden job loss can occur when you are terminated or laid off, when you resign because you feel you have no choice, or when you are burned out and choose to leave. Regardless of the reason, the sudden loss of a job can be nothing short of traumatic. It is a personal and professional crisis that must be managed. Margaret will discuss the events, examine her journey, provide perspectives, and share lessons learned. Participants can also share their experiences with others.
