Redundancy hits the identity before it hits the wallet. This is the short guide I've written for the day, the week, the month it takes to steady yourself before the next move.
"You didn't lose your skills. You lost your seat. Start there."
Why this exists
The guide to read before you touch a resume.
Before you rewrite your LinkedIn. Before you call the recruiter. Before you type a single line into a CV. Read this first.
Two pages. Six minutes. The reframe that separates the leaders who move forward with clarity from the ones who rush into reactive job-hunting mode.
Inside the guide
Three reframes for the moment.
Written for the leader — or IC — sitting in a Sunday-night pit trying to work out what happens next.
Separate the seat from the skill
A structure problem is not a you problem. This is how to tell the difference — and why it matters for the story you tell next.
Reset the internal narrative
The language you use with yourself now shapes the language you'll use with recruiters, hiring panels and boards in six weeks. Get this right first.
The one thing to do this week
Not fifteen. Not a to-do list. One specific action that moves you from "I've been made redundant" to "here's what I'm building next."
Who this is for
Anyone whose seat just changed.
Not just leaders. ICs, senior operators, first-time managers, anyone whose title just got taken off the door.
- You were made redundant this week, this month, or six months ago
- You're between roles and stuck in the "what now" loop
- You're an IC caught in a restructure and processing what it means
- You're supporting someone through redundancy and want a resource to share
- You're a leader who's about to have this conversation with your team
- You're rebuilding the case for yourself and don't know where to start
Ready when you are
When you want the next step.
Twenty-seven years in corporate. Twelve of them leading teams at DDLS, Cisco, Accenture and Zoom. I've watched restructures from every angle — the one delivering the news, the one hearing it, the one supporting the team afterwards.
The single most useful thing I've learned: the first move isn't the resume. It's the reframe.
This is the guide I wish someone had put in my hands.
