Kim Pool: Creating a Career Path…On Purpose

Описание: Losing a job can unravel more than a paycheck. It can quietly shake confidence, identity, and direction all at once. When work disappears, pressure fills the space it leaves behind. Certainly for the person who lost the position, but in many ways, also for the person who lost the employee.


In this episode of Purpose Under Pressure, host Bryan Lefelhoc, founder of Bryan Media Strategies (https://www.bryanmediastrategies.com/) , is joined by Kim Pool, a career coach with IntoUSA (https://www.intoo.com/us/) . With more than 20 years of experience in career development and outplacement, Kim works with individuals navigating layoffs and career transitions while also helping employers support people well during difficult exits.


We talk about what people actually experience after a job ends, like shock, doubt, anger, and fear, and why rushing into applications often backfires. We also discuss how thoughtful employers protect trust and culture by offering career support.


Purpose Under Pressure is brought to you in partnership with Sandler by the Ruby Group (https://go.sandler.com/therubygroup/) , serving sales professionals and sales organizations nationwide from their locations in Akron and Columbus, Ohio, in Capital Region, New York, and in Jacksonville, Florida
