About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Losing your job may be one of the toughest challenges you will face in your career. It can make you feel completely powerless, anxious and thrown off track. So how can you learn to adapt and even thrive through your most difficult and transformative experiences?

Why Losing Your Job Could Be the Best Thing That Ever Happened to You is a compassionate guide that will inform and engage anyone who is facing redundancy or job loss - with deeply inspiring case studies and clear and brilliantly accessible, practical advice for getting back on course with your life and career. Learn how to:

  • Navigate feelings of anger, guilt and shame.
  • Search for new beginnings.
  • Overcome analysis paralysis.
  • Progress with small steps.

Eleanor Tweddell's five-step plan will support you through the early stages of shock, through to building up the skills, self-confidence and motivation to thrive after redundancy - whether that is in your previous sector or something new.

Critic reviews

"This book reminded me why an ending - especially an unexpected one - can be the best kind of beginning." (Viv Groskop, author of Lift as You Climb)

"This book will help you escape the valleys of rejection bound for the peaks of opportunity." (Bruce Daisley, best-selling author of The Joy of Work)

Fantastic guide to cope after job loss.

I have read the book and listened on audible. Eleanor is brilliant at taking you on a very personal journey with advice, tips and guidance through an unsettled period. I liked the case studies and the authors own journey following redundancy. Everyone’s journey will be different but I found the advice invaluable! I felt like I had a guide and support and this book helped me choose a different path which I would not have otherwise considered. Great book, great narration, really enjoyed the insights. Thank you Eleanor.

So good I bought the paper version

A very well put together book. It offers practical advice and also anecdotes that mirror my lived experience and helped me not feel so alone.
