How to Build Career Resilience in Uncertain Times
- Identify non-negotiables. Examples… Are you willing to be in the office 5 days a week? Would you take a pay cut for more meaningful work?
- Build adaptability and agility. Find ways to work just outside your role, practice self-regulation and recognize your stress triggers, bet on high-value skills (leadership, EQ, reading the room), and make learning part of your job rather than a backup plan.
- Deepen relationships. Go beyond your role/company, nurture deep connections vs. collecting people on LinkedIn, and check in on your work best friend.
- Create your next best option. Check in quarterly and annually on your skills, energy, and path. Engage in professional groups. Let trusted people know you’re open to new things.
