About this Event

So, you got fired, laid off, restructured, canned. Welcome to the club, baby! In today’s seismically changing job market, getting fired doesn’t automatically mean you failed; it’s a rite of passage.

With their decades of experience in high-stakes leadership roles, Laura Brown and Kristina O’Neill know firsthand the challenges (and thrilling opportunities) that come with losing a job, no matter where you are in your career. They’ve been through the shock, grief, anger, and confusion, and they’re here to help you navigate the experience.

This evening is about career recovery and bouncing back with more professional mojo than ever!

Kristina O’Neill is head of Sotheby’s Media and editor in chief of Sotheby’s Magazine. Previously, she served as editor in chief of WSJ.
