This podcast is going to focus on how to manage your career during a crisis. The current crisis happens to be a new virus, but in the future there could be a different crisis and these tips will still apply. Think about Y2K or the crash of 2008. These were all events that impacted the world of work in different ways.

 

I want to start with making sure you know and understand how you react, function, and manage during a crisis situation. Being able to identify this will help you figure out the best way to move forward and where your blind spots might be during a crisis.

 

I believe there are 3 types of professionals in a crisis:

1. The level headed professional

2. The over-reacting professional

3. The I don’t care it’s probably not real anyway professional

 

The point of identifying this in yourself is being realistic about how you handle and manage extremely stressful situations and immediate change.

 

A crisis like this can have a major impact on the economy and jobs. This episode will give you actions to think about taking when it comes to your career. I will outline different scenarios you might encounter and provide you with actions to manage the situation.

 

I reference season 1 of the podcast “Should I Quit My Job?” and the episode on How to Set Intentional Career Goals.

Given what is happening in the world right now, I want to make sure I provide relevant content for my listeners and this topic seems to be at the forefront of many people’s minds.

 

While I understand not everyone has the ability to work remotely, because it is such a new situation for many people, I want to make sure you are set up for success if you fall into this group.

 

My first few tips are going apply to everyone and are foundational to working from home. Then I’ll provide some tips that might only apply to some of you including how to manage projects and what to do with children. Childcare and managing all these tiny humans who are now home seems to be one of the questions I have seen most. These tips can at least get you started and set up to manage this new season as best you can.

 

At the end of the day, you need to do what is best for you, you’re family, and your career. Working from home can be easy for some and hard for others. This will also be an especially hard time for organizations and industries where there is little trust of the staff.

 

If you are in a position where you are questioning your current career or asking yourself “Should I Quit My Job?” Use this time to listen to season 1 of this podcast to help you get clear and make some decisions and plans for the future of your career.

The beginning of a decade is happening and you need to be prepared! Take control of your career and be prepared to make moves.

 

Everyone talks about goal setting, but few actually go into specifics! This episode dives into the three types of goals you should have for your career every year.

 

PRO TIP – This podcast is better suited for someone who has an idea of where they are headed in their career AND assumes you care about your career and want more from it.

 

If you aren’t sure where you are headed, listen anyway because at the end I let you in on what January 2020 holds for the Ride the Tide Collective Podcast and it will definitely help you out.

Incompetence is the worst and having an incompetent boss makes your job much more difficult. This episode will go through a list to determine if your boss is actually incompetent, along with examples from my own experience. Once we have determined your bosses incompetence level, I will share three tips to help you cope and manage the situation.

 

Some of my tips require you to do some internal work, so if you aren’t ready to hear that advice to ensure your boss is actually the problem, don’t listen.

 

This episode also discusses what to do if you are in a toxic or abusive situation with your boss and how best to prepare.
