The Redundancy Vaccine

Just as the flu virus has become a threat to our physical health and well-being, the disruption and automation of the Fourth Industrial Revolution both pose significant threats to our career health as organisations face global competition and rationalise workforces through restructuring and redundancy.
In her TEDx talk, career coach and trainer, Carolyn Parry, argues that in the same way that we take action to stay healthy and avoid catching the flu, we need to look after our career health. To help with this, she shares the story of Peter, one of her clients, to illustrate a four-part career management strategy that anyone can use to vaccinate their career against the threat and thrive throughout a 50-year career no matter how much the world of work changes.
