In many instances, the ‘hybrid’ model has emerged as the most prevalent way of working, if your role has been traditionally office-based. This involves a merging of working from home and working in the office, with specific days allotted to both each week. It has been welcomed by many as allowing staff a much great […]
An interview for a new role is almost as likely to be carried out remotely, as it is to be a face-to-face affair these days. However, whichever it is there are still things you can do – or be aware of – to help ensure that you make a positive impression on the interviewer. Do […]
I hugely dislike the term ‘dropped out’. Whilst my outplacement work is largely with people who are established in their careers rather than students and young people, I hear a lot of stories about career ‘non-choices’ based on parents’ expectations and yes, sometimes real pressure. When a young person finds they don’t like their degree […]
We must not lose sight of the importance of coaching for success, regardless of whether someone is home working, or back in the office. We’ve all seen some drastic changes to our work routines over the last two years. As of February 2022, 20% of workers across the UK have not returned to the office […]
I often give my outplacement clients advice to find a space in their home which they can use exclusively as an office and one that they feel content using. This means they are in the right frame of mind when working on their campaign and then being able to close the door as well as […]

After numerous false starts, there now is a real optimism in the air that the end of the pandemic is in sight. With the return to the office now allowed, many people are finding their feet in the new working landscape. For some working from home remains the answer, while others have returned to the […]
It might seem obvious to say it, but what you get out of outplacement has a direct correlation with what you put in. it’s a bit like joining a gym. It’s not enough to sign up for it, you actually have to use the equipment, join the classes and focus on your nutrition too. OK, […]
When I started my career in outplacement in the 1990s, the CVs I helped people prepare looked a bit like the one above. To call it inappropriate now is an understatement. Printed on white paper, and produced in 12pt, Times New Roman font was the standard. And of course, contact details included home address and […]
A traditional toast is to ‘health, wealth and happiness’, three key elements to life for many people.
