Did that title make you sit up and take notice? Isn't David Cameron already chasing the Prime Minister role? Of course he is.
Globalisation and relocation of UK jobs overseas
Whilst politicians operate with an aim of securing a seat in Westminster (or in the Welsh or Scottish Assemblies), they are not likely to be affected by Globalisation and relocation of work overseas. However, another David Cameron has shared that after 19 years of service, his job is to be relocated, like many others to foreign cheaper shores and expects to be made redundant this summer.
Treat Redundancy as an opportunity
In a candid article overall, David writes about making choices to relocate jobs only where it will not impact customer service and laments that sometimes it had lead to reduced overall standards of service. It doesn't always have to be a poor choice for customers though.
Most importantly, he also reflects that with life changing events such as redundancy also comes the opportunity to reconsider the future, re-assess your options and decide which direction you would now like to take.
All too often we live in a continuum of 'cosy slippers' and not being adventurous enough to try something new because we are simply not brave enough to make a leap, being risk-averse to the thought of failure and potential regret at leaving a comfortable position should things turn sour.
When you are pushed into a redundancy situation, there is no question that focussing on the positive sides of redundancy (rather than immersing yourself in the negative aspects) will make it easier to accept and to look forward to the future with a clearer focussed mind.
