Hundreds of successful, college-educated baby boomers who suffered career crashes as a result of corporate downsizing, career disenchantment, and other factors. Coming from such diverse professions as business, education, law, medicine, engineering, and the arts, these managers and professionals talk candidly about the warning signs that precede a crash, the devastating emotional reactions that ensue, what family and friends can do to help, and the pivotal stages in. Putting a career back on course. Everyone at the start of a career crash feels like a victim, beaten and robbed by a profession. But most of Glassner's subjects picked themselves up, dusted themselves off, and moved on. How did they salvage their pride? What did they tell their children? When did they opt for career counseling, when for going back to school? How long did it take them to forge a new career, and how many eventually felt themselves to be better off? For. Those in the throes of a career crash and for their loved ones, Career Crash answers these questions and many more. Vivid and inspiring, Career Crash explains why career crashes are inevitable for so many, and offers surprising solutions that go beyond simply pulling resumes together and going back to job hunting.".
