The Real Warning Behind Amazon Layoffs?

Описание: Amazon layoffs are making headlines—but they’re not the real warning sign.

If you’re a high-performing professional navigating corporate burnout, job insecurity, or a career transition, this conversation is for you.

In this Corporate to Calling™ strategic exit conversation, I break down what mass layoffs (like the recent Amazon layoffs) actually reveal about corporate culture, market timing, and career risk—and why waiting for the “right moment” to leave corporate often keeps top performers stuck in survival mode.

If you’re dealing with golden handcuffs, quiet burnout, or the realization that your success no longer feels aligned with your values, this video will help you understand what’s really happening—and how to build a strategic corporate exit without panic, bridges burned, or financial instability.

This is not about quitting your job.
It’s about career clarity, positioning, and building an exit plan while you’re still employed.

🎯 What You’ll Learn in This Video:

• Why Amazon layoffs and tech layoffs are a symptom—not the real problem
• The difference between strategic exit planning vs panic quitting
• How to leverage your corporate currency (skills, experience, reputation) before you leave
• How to build a career exit strategy while still employed (without getting caught)
• Strategic networking that protects relationships and future opportunities
• How to fund your career transition safely and responsibly
• What a Corporate Exit Strategist actually does—and who needs one

Whether you’re still in corporate, recently laid off, or already exploring what’s next, this conversation will help you move from reactive career decisions to intentional, strategic action.

As a Career Strategist and Author, I share the honest truth about leaving corporate life — to help you transition from employee to CEO, on your own terms.
