Veja como você pode transformar uma demissão em um catalisador para o crescimento da carreira.

Uma demissão normalmente é um processo traumático e se não cuidarmos, com grandes consequências. O motivo é que ficamos imaginando (e nos corroendo): - O que as outras pessoas irão pensar a nossa respeito - E sobre o por quê fomos preteridos (desligados) ao invés de outra pessoa Pior do que tudo isso, é o sentimento de termos fracassado. A grande verdade é que tudo isso ocorre apenas na nossa fértil imaginação pois, as pessoas não estão tão preocupadas conosco quanto imaginamos. Se a demissão acontecer, não fique se martirizando. Faça uma autoanálise e entenda no que pode melhorar, parar de fazer ou agir de diferente na nova empresa. Mantenha o foco na solução e entenda que seu crescimento e sua carreira são sua responsabilidade.

Transformar uma demissão em uma oportunidade de crescimento requer uma abordagem proativa e resiliente. Inicialmente, é importante processar emocionalmente a situação e identificar lições aprendidas. Em seguida, recomendo revisar e atualizar seu currículo, fortalecer sua rede de contatos e explorar novas oportunidades de aprendizado e desenvolvimento. Além disso, considere a possibilidade de buscar orientação de um coach de carreira para elaborar estratégias eficazes de reinserção no mercado de trabalho e identificar caminhos para alcançar seus objetivos profissionais a longo prazo.

Es una experiencia difícil, sin embargo, muy interesante, permitiéndote salir de la zona de confort donde pensabas que lo tenias todo y no te podría pasar nada, forzándote a explorar y redescubrir fortalezas y habilidades que tenias congeladas por sentirte "estable" y cómodo en tu trabajo.

Quando tive minha demissão, desligamento da última empresa fiquei desesperada, é um choque né, ficar desempregada. Mas abracei a oportunidade ee cuidar de mim, de rever o que eu ainda podia aprender, cursar, estudar, conhecer, o que ainda faltava por falta de tempo e agora eu tinha tempo para realizar.

While it's normal to feel a sense of loss, this period also offers a chance for self-discovery and development. Reflect on your skills, interests, and aspirations, and explore new industries or roles that intrigue you. This could be the ideal moment to pursue a career path that better aligns with your passions and abilities, paving the way for a fulfilling and rewarding future.

Any layoff can feel heavy and everyone transitions through this change differently - just like any loss. It is important in the beginning to embrace a growth mindset and look at this adversity as a new opportunity vs. thinking it will completely stop growth forever. Nothing is forever. Take this moment after a layoff and use it a fuel for you.

Turning a layoff into a catalyst for career growth involves embracing the situation, reflecting on past experiences, and assessing strengths and interests to explore new opportunities. It's about investing in learning and development, networking for support and job leads, and staying positive and persistent throughout the process. Whether pursuing traditional employment, entrepreneurship, or freelancing, setting clear goals, taking action, and celebrating achievements along the way are essential for leveraging the layoff as a stepping stone to a more fulfilling and successful career path.

Embracing change and being resilient to changing times is the most crucial skill that we all need to build in today’s environment. In a world where layoffs is very common; being mindful of it, preparing ahead of time and also keeping your reserves / backup ready, will help you embrace the change in a more positive way. Moreover, incase you face this challenge ever, rather than asking yourself “why me?”, reframe your thought process and ask yourself “what next?” This will help you get a clear perspective of things, take a stock of situation in hand and plan ahead better.

After the initial period of denial, grief, anger and other tumultuous emotions, prioritize your mental wellbeing. First manage your mood, then your problem. Specifically: Assess your skills, strengths and contributions to create positive emotions. And then use these positive emotions as a fuel to create momentum. Because if you approach this situation from the negative, all your endeavors will be colored by bitterness which will hinder your way forward. But if you take action from the place of calm, self-acceptance and pride for being who you are and accomplishing all that you have, you will radiate a more positive energy that will lift your spirits and make you more creative in finding solutions.

This is the most ignored part, especially when faced with a layoff. Many people get going and aggressively start looking out for another opportunity. However, this is an actual time of reflection- introspection of what skills you already have, is there any gap in your skills as per what the market requires, how can you bridge that gap. These are essential questions that one should ponder on and use this time to ‘sharpen your axe’, learn more skills, upgrade yourself and become ready for better avenues

A demissão me fez perceber que eu tinha um propósito e uma transição de carreira pra iniciar, e com ela tinha algumas skills que eh precisava aprimorar e outras que eu precisava obter, capacitações, informações, certificações. Isso fez com que o processo fosse mais tranquilo e calmo, me dando confiança e foco pra conseguir oportunidade e para atuar como Especialista.

When we face an unexpected dismissal, it causes great confusion and despair, which makes us look for the first offers that appear without really thinking what we want and more by necessity that we do, being this a moment to take a pause, think what we want to do, what could have failed, what contributed to that decision, even if we know if we want to continue in the same labor field .... is time to strengthen our skills, should we change the labor field .... are questions we ask ourselves

From my perspective working with clients, once people start talking to other people, they feel a lot better. First, learning how many people have experienced a layoff demystifies the experience a bit and normalizes what might be a sense of failure. By reaching out to others, people have a chance to tell their stories. It’s in the story telling that they see an opportunity to create a new narrative going forward. talking about what they’ve done in the past usually builds confidence and their skills and help us to get a sense of what they’d like to do next. Another reason to make connections with people is that many midlevel+ jobs are not posted externally and you need to talk to people to uncover opportunities.

Take the initiative to reconnect with former colleagues, participate in professional groups, and attend industry events, whether virtually or in person. Active engagement on professional social media platforms by sharing insights and joining discussions can also expand your network. Remember, these connections may offer valuable support, advice, and even job leads down the line.

Reach out to other people to regain a sense of self-worth which might have suffered due to the layoff. Ask your former colleagues, friends and others who know you to tell you all that's great about you, your strengths, skills and general qualities. This will certainly lift your spirits, and it might give you new ideas on your next step forward. The worst you can do is close yourself to the world and spend a lot of time alone thinking about what went wrong and why.

Quando se trata de transformar uma demissão em um catalisador para o crescimento de carreira, estabelecer uma rede ativa é crucial. Use sua rede para buscar novas oportunidades, seja por meio de contatos profissionais, ex-colegas de trabalho ou grupos de networking. Mantenha-se visível e engajado em plataformas profissionais online, como LinkedIn, compartilhando conteúdo relevante e participando de discussões da indústria. Além disso, não tenha medo de pedir apoio e orientação a pessoas de confiança em sua rede, aproveitando suas experiências e conselhos para impulsionar seus resultados e abrir novos caminhos em sua carreira.

Sempre mantenho minha rede de networking ativa e aprendo diariamente com.ela, muitos profissionais que tem muito o que contribuir através de experiências e conhecimentos. Demissão faz com que você precise aprender novas habilidades, informações, técnicas, ferramentas, e uma rede de contatos bem ativa podem ajudar bastante e isso faz com que a gente consiga nova oportunidade muito mais rápido.

In this era of digital boom, I think that the networks are a very valuable tool to make ourselves known in the best way, however this situation makes that we must do it in the right way, knowing how, where and with whom to connect to reach the success or goal we want.

Algo que me ajudou muito e recomendo pós demissão é terapia. Vamos acabar esse pré conceito e pré julgamento de que terapia é algo pra quem tem problema mental ou doença mental. Terapia é vida, é maravilhoso e nios ajuda a lidar com nossas emoções e sentimentos, pensamentos e ações. O desânimo fica pra trás e a motivação ganha lugar.

Identify where you may have a fixed mindset and get adaptive to find your growth mindset! People with a growth mindset view challenges as opportunities to learn and grow, while those with a fixed mindset see them as limitations.
