How to Avoid Being Downsized

Posted on: May 08, 2017 Category: Blog

The key to career resilience is to rethink the way you do work.  Tony Wagner, Expert in Residence at Harvard University Innovation Lab, outlines what to do to stay current and vital to your organization:  “Today, because knowledge is available on every Internet connected device, what you know matters far less than what you can do with what you know.  The capacity to innovate – the ability to solve problems creatively or bring new possibilities to life – and skills like critical thinking, communication and collaboration are far more important that academic knowledge.”

So how are you adding value to your organization?  What new ideas or solutions could you be putting forward to address critical issues facing your workplace?  By helping your organization stay ahead of the curve, you also build career resilience to help survive your next corporate restructuring.

Wishing you much career success!
