Reviews

Kate RooneyThe OnLegs Agency
"Losing your job can create a spiral of confusion and emotions. Having a book like this at hand before or during is essential reading in my opinion. John creates clarity and calm in what can be a chaotic time. Easy to read with meaningful and practical takeaways.”
Sarah DalyBusiness Consulting & Executive Coaching
"Prepare to Get Fired!" is a must-read for employees at every stage of their career, and a book I believe should be gifted to every student leaving university. While it offers valuable advice on preparing for unexpected career changes, the lessons shared are really life skills for long-term success. It’s a book I’ll keep on my shelf and refer back to often. I highly recommend it.”
Mel SherwoodPersonal Impact & Presentation Specialist
“Job security is definitely not a thing, and workplaces are changing rapidly, so you need to be prepared to be unemployed at any moment. And this book will help you to do just that. Incorporating gentle humour, John writes about what he wished he'd known before his 'safe and secure' role was made redundant and his world was turned upside down. It's well-structured, easy to read and packed with tips on having a growth mindset and developing resilience (including financial resilience), how to build your personal brand and network as well as what to do should you be facing redundancy. A great read for people who want to get ahead in the world of business whilst preparing for a potential change of circumstances.”
Donal KeatingFormer Head of Operations at Dublin Bus
“Prepare to Get Fired shook me awake to the realities of the modern uncertain world we all inhabit and made me reflect on several aspects of my career. The many simple yet effective ideas outlined in this book if fully embraced will not only enhance your promotional opportunities within your organisation but will also make possible redundancy, something that can be handled almost as easily as intentionally moving to a new job position.”
