Are we in a state of economic emergency?  If so, how do you react to protect your career today and your opportunities to advance tomorrow? 

Is there a professional equivalent of dialing 911?

Clients, colleagues and journalists have reached out to me over the past weeks asking my opinion on handling uncertain times and unsettling events, such as cutbacks, staff and management attrition, and management change.  Most recently, CNBC.com's Joseph Pisani interviewed me for his article, Eight Ways to Prepare for a Layoff, on how to react to the recent events at HP, Lehman and AIG.

There is no way to sugar coat this – these situations are challenging.  But you still have choices.
You can respond by passively sitting back, waiting, worrying, and watching. Or, you can act constructively on your own behalf starting now.

To guide your emergency response system, I’m offering a free 5-page report: 6 Certain Steps to Fortify Your Career in Uncertain Times.  

The report is concise, but each recommendation yields you tangible benefits in the immediate term – days or weeks, not months.

You can take decisive positive steps to: 

•  Boost your pride and confidence

•  Increase your value to your boss and organization

•  Position yourself for promotion … or gaining a better job somewhere else

•  Jumpstart your professional growth

•  Turn the tide in your favor, despite the negative news around you

•  Give yourself the breaks you need to succeed

•  Appreciate and acknowledge your best traits
