The circumstances
Neil was a Divisional Financial Director of a FTSE 100 company
when corporate restructuring made his position redundant.
His generous redundancy package included three months’
executive outplacement provided by a well-known organisation.
However, after the programme had finished Neil seemed no further forward. He had just one screening interview to show
for all his efforts.
The meetings he had with the counsellor – a former HR
manager with an international chemicals company – were
well meaning but not challenging or productive The seminars
he attended were uninspiring. Neil’s former company
had paid £6,000 for the outplacement service but he
had played no part in selecting the service or the counsellor. Neil decided to engage the services of Appleby Associates and worked with one of our professional career consultants.
The issue
-
Neil wanted to choose who he would work with and how.
The outcome
Upon meeting Robert, a highly experienced career consultant
with a business background, Neil found the personal chemistry
was good so they agreed to work together to get things back
on track. Once more in control, Neil was re-energised and
began to make progress. The intensive work, particularly on
interview techniques, soon paid off and Neil accepted an offer with a well funded start-up.
