Job hugging is a newly identified trend where people hold onto their dysfunctional jobs as long as they can because of the instability of the job market.

It makes sense. Our world is changing rapidly and it seems like there’s not a day that goes by without a life altering piece of news.

So how do we do this and not lose our minds? We are still dealing with the same people in the same dysfunctional environment who are also holding onto their jobs with a death grip. So we need strategy - and that’s where I come in. Unmanaged, where we build the skills to navigate workplaces that aren’t working, is getting more strategic too.

Going forward, I will be posting at least twice weekly: One post introducing a concept, strategy or technique on Wednesdays and then on Fridays for Fridays Off the Record to answer questions from readers. This gives me more time to develop the resources this moment actually calls for.

In the coming weeks I’ll be rolling out more ways to get what you need, without it costing more than you have. Workshops, email courses and a support group are some of the things I am working on. If you have ideas or feedback that you’d like to share, I’d love to hear about them. Please email me at [email protected].

I can’t wait to share more with you!
