Morning ! You Are fired

A Chief Operating Officer of a world renowned companies of the day came that her office promptly at 7 am magnificent . The owner of the company came into his office shortly thereafter . After a little small talk , he said : " My friend , " he said . " I'm proud of your work over the years, " he continued . The CEO of course the boss was happy to hear compliments . " But , " continued the boss . This time , it started to feel a CEO be a big question mark . "

The stakeholders we want to replace you with someone better ..... " At that moment , a sunny morning seemed to be turned into darkness while occasionally dikilati of light and thunder clap of thunder that makes the soul tremble . The CEO could only stare . As if in disbelief at what she had just heard . Suppose , the news was not addressed to the CEO that we're talking about it . But to you . What are you going to do ?

Perhaps you think that the above conversation was just imaginary. But , if you follow the development of the international business world these days : you will find that such a conversation actually happened in the real world . ' Victim ' ? Much . Starting from the number one leading bank . The leader of the most advanced pharmaceutical companies . Up to coffee -based drinks giant that scent fame get here . Political language may put it mildly, such as ; early retirement or golden hand shake .

You remember the tragic story of the cruise ship that struck the legendary Titanic which sank on April 14, 1912 . The event is expected to cost 1,500 casualties . Experts believe that the main factors that led to the large number of casualties is not merely the sinking , but rather , inadequate number of lifeboats that no vessel was compared with the number of passengers there . They are so convinced that the Titanic could not sink . So , why must provide a lifeboat ? That said , when it happens perisiwa ; actually still plenty of time to do the rescue . However , as the number of lifeboats just a little , only a small portion can be saved .

In life , we often think of work like that. We are so sure that we use the ship to sail the oceans of the world of work is not going to sink . So we do not feel it is important to have lifeboats . But , how many companies have gone bankrupt and then sink like the Titanic ? If we may say without censorship , the real world of work we are more at risk than the Titanic . What happened to the Titanic was a disaster for all passengers . Everyone faces the same problem . Cause ; person either not kicked out of the ship . But , in a company ; has happened so often an employee kicked out of the ark that easy company . As the events that befall the CEO .

If it can happen to a company's top management : then do not be surprised if it could so easily beset with great employees at the level of the other . Yes. Of course . You already know it . . Unfortunately , at this time , we are still very confident to say that we will not experience such a fate . Really, no guarantee . Because, however, it can happen to anyone . Employees are ugly . Good employees . Dilevel employees everywhere . Director ? There have been many directors are laid off , too, is not it?
Someone might think you are too pessimistic in view of future work . There's a difference between pessimism anticipatory manner . Someone who is pessimistic , view of the negative side , and he did not do anything to prepare himself , but maintains the feeling of anxiety . Meanwhile , people are anticipatory , looking at a rational and proportionate risk . Then he prepared himself to deal with difficult situations in the event at any time .

Layoffs is our day-to- day risk . We do not need to be too confident in saying that it will never happen to us . Or conversely too scared if experienced . Therefore , as long as we ' prepare ourselves to face the possibility that , ' then rest assured that our future will be fine . At the very least , we are not too shocked , if it actually happened . And more important than it is ; start preparing for ' lifeboat ' that from this moment . Lifeboats are always ready for use at any time if we need it .

The great variety of reactions when layoffs occur . There is panic . There are mediocre . Some are happy . There are people who get ' golden hand shake " but her face sad and pessimistic world in front of him with a look . There is a severance pay in accordance with the rules contained in the law , and yet , looking at the future with enthusiasm and optimism. Why attitude they can be different , right? Apparently, the people who have been ' preparing ' herself to the situation as it is more difficult to deal with that reality . They look at the bright side . And they found that: it is not the end of everything.
