Hello all! I have been asked any number of times and on any number of occasions to offer advice on the subject of layoffs. I decided to split it all up into 6 short videos for those who may be worried about such an event.

The good news here, in my humble opinion, is that if you listen to these, you may come away with great career pointers that apply all the time, not just during a layoff event.

My best to all of you and may you always be ahead of the curve, like the example of a certain Detroit person I provide in one of the videos below.

It isn't just Steve's pragmatism and ability to see all situations through the prism of common sense and fairness that make him the first person I consult when I encounter a challenging situation. It's the fact that his motivations as a professional, philanthropist and friend are born out of a genuine sense of goodness and kind intent. You hear a lot of people that claim to be 'selfless' but with Steve it's really never about HIM. He's smart, thoughtful and compassionate and I am one of many who count him among my most trusted colleagues.
