CMO Career Setback: Rebuilding Confidence and Career Success After Being Laid Off or Fired

One study found that being laid off ranked seventh among the most stressful life experiences — above divorce, a sudden and serious impairment of hearing or vision, or the death of a close friend

 

Experts advise that it takes, on average, two years to recover from the psychological trauma of losing a job. 

 

Being laid off once or twice is mortifying enough, but having to go through a series of job losses year after year can lead to devastating events - financial hardship, psychological problems and most importantly loss of confidence and self-worth.  

 

If you are a CMO, you might’ve been through this rollercoaster of a ride and may even be thinking that you’ve reached your lowest low.

 

You are not alone!!

 

Hundreds and hundreds of other top notch marketing leaders have at some point experienced this vicious cycle. 

 

Watch our session where Erica Seidel and Jacob Warwick discusses proven strategies on how to vet potential marketing gigs, demonstrate your value, position yourself as a hard-to-get ‘front-runner’ and negotiate the best possible package (while most importantly not getting desperate).

 

The session also dives into potential scenarios of why so many CMOs get fired and what strategies can be implemented in the future to extend that lifespan for our collective. 

 

We finished off the roundtable with a step-by-step guide on how to create a bullet-proof mindset and not get into the lost identity trap ever again.
