BONUS: How To Manage Your Career During A Crisis

Monday, March 16, 2020 • Duration 10:15

This podcast is going to focus on how to manage your career during a crisis. The current crisis happens to be a new virus, but in the future there could be a different crisis and these tips will still apply. Think about Y2K or the crash of 2008. These were all events that impacted the world of work in different ways. I want to start with making sure you know and understand how you react, function, and manage during a crisis situation. Being able to identify this will help you figure out the best way to move forward and where your blind spots might be during a crisis. I believe there are 3 types of professionals in a crisis: 1. The level headed professional 2. The over-reacting professional 3. The I don’t care it’s probably not real anyway professional The point of identifying this in yourself is being realistic about how you handle and manage extremely stressful situations and immediate change. A crisis like this can have a major impact on the economy and jobs. This episode will give you actions to think about taking when it comes to your career. I will outline different scenarios you might encounter and provide you with actions to manage the situation. I reference season 1 of the podcast "Should I Quit My Job?" and the episode on How to Set Intentional Career Goals.

Monday, March 16, 2020 • Duration 11:38

Given what is happening in the world right now, I want to make sure I provide relevant content for my listeners and this topic seems to be at the forefront of many people’s minds. While I understand not everyone has the ability to work remotely, because it is such a new situation for many people, I want to make sure you are set up for success if you fall into this group. My first few tips are going apply to everyone and are foundational to working from home. Then I’ll provide some tips that might only apply to some of you including how to manage projects and what to do with children. Childcare and managing all these tiny humans who are now home seems to be one of the questions I have seen most. These tips can at least get you started and set up to manage this new season as best you can. At the end of the day, you need to do what is best for you, you’re family, and your career. Working from home can be easy for some and hard for others. This will also be an especially hard time for organizations and industries where there is little trust of the staff. If you are in a position where you are questioning your current career or asking yourself “Should I Quit My Job?” Use this time to listen to season 1 of this podcast to help you get clear and make some decisions and plans for the future of your career.

Should I Quit My Job? Answering Your Questions (10/10)

Season 1 · Episode 10

Wednesday, March 4, 2020 • Duration 22:18

This is the last episode of season 1 and it's all about your questions! This topic of whether you should quit your job is obviously very personal and there are a lot of nuances to answering it for yourself. While I have provided an overview and specific actions to get started, there is a lot more that could have been addressed — hence the q&a episode! Thank you to those who submitted questions! Here are the questions that will be addressed:

How do I know if I’m cut out for management?
Tell me about recommendations. Who do you ask? Does it matter?
What is the best way to resign? Especially if you are frustrated or annoyed with your manager. When do you submit the resignation letter, exit interview, etc. Basically, how do you keep it all professional?
How do I know if I need a career coach or therapy?
I don’t really like my job, but I have to stay. There aren’t opportunities for growth - what should I do?
Do you have any advice on explaining a career switch to your significant other or family, especially when they think you’re crazy?
I know I can do more with my career, but I have a family and time feels scarce - how do I balance time with my family and moving forward in my career?

Should I Quit My Job? Yes, Now What? (9/10)

Season 1 · Episode 9

Wednesday, February 26, 2020 • Duration 11:09

This episode is all about the next steps if you have decided that you are ready to QUIT and move on from your position. The strategies and tactics I am going to provide in this episode will focus on professionals who are ready for the next move but don't have any issues in their position or who recognize they don't fit in their current role or company well and want to make a change. I want to be clear that I am not speaking to people who are in crisis mode with their job. I am speaking to professionals who want to move forward strategically and have time to do so. Similar to Episode 8, I will pose 3 questions you need to be able to articulate BEFORE you embark on using the strategies I outline. Please know that this is a long-term strategy, not a quick fix. If you need a quick fix, hire a career coach, get out of your position, and then use this model to help you move up or out of the new role. This process could easily take a year or more to complete, depending on the foundation you already have established. Some professionals are natural networkers who have a level of confidence that will get them noticed immediately. This type of person might only need a few months to find a new role. Others are starting from nothing or want to switch functional areas or industries, which will take longer in establish. Regardless of the situation you are in, if you are ready to move up or out of a position, take the time to do the work. Don't rush the process, keep your spirits high, and see every situation as an opportunity to learn and better yourself.

In the last episode of season one, I am going to do some Q&A. If you have any questions, please send an email to hello@ridethetidecollective.com, send me a DM on Instagram, or . I look forward to connecting with you!
