Our proactive approach establishes effective working relationships with all stakeholders in the career transition process, including executives, senior management, HR leaders, and line managers/supervisors. We begin with pre-termination consulting to gain an understanding of business rationale, organizational protocols, expected outcomes and the effects of the process on the organization.

Onsite notification support includes recommendations for handling the notification and communication processes, advice on the handling of behavioral issues and debriefing meetings with management / staff following completion of the separation activities. Following notification, we immediately begin same day/next day follow-up with affected employees to ‘check in,’ clarify next steps and set appointments to begin the transition process. Our focus is on positive steps to move them forward. We offer a variety of program options that are designed to meet a wide range of organizational and individual needs. What sets us apart among all other career transition firms is our Concierge Executive Career Transition program, the Executive Experience allowing for personal, private reflection and counseling time. Based upon employee level, service length and other situational factors, we offer program options from group, one month, to one year. Our programs are results-driven, and success is defined as helping the employee toward meeting his or her career journey, not just finding the ‘next job.’

The Changing World of Work

As a Nation we are currently undergoing a redefinition of the World of Work and what employment looks like. Before 2010 the traditional work force was estimated at 5% contingency and 95% full time employment. By 2015 the contingency work group exceeded 15% and is expected to be over 20% by the year 2020. Beyond that some expect there to be a balance of 50/50 percent by 2025. While some hail this as a problem, others believe this to be a positive shift. Change and perspective on employment opportunities will require new ways of managing career and life balance along with your personal career strategy. Part of this is driven by the fact that according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics approximately 10,000 workers are retiring every day creating opportunities for change in organizational structure and roles.

With this accelerated rate of change, driven by multiple factors, your career strategic plan must accommodate a variety of options. As a candidate you must be well versed in the various techniques and options you must utilize while searching for your next opportunity in this new environment. We at Miles LeHane include coaching you in the various employment arrangements and can assist you in preparing your resume/personal marketing and support materials to “contributed value interviewing” and framing your “unique value contributions” to managing the compensation strategy. As the World of Work redefines itself, so you must redefine your approach to your next opportunity.
