“I am extremely grateful to and for Kimberlee Archie. As my supervisor, I knew that she always had my back. At the same time, she would never allow me to slip, to slack, to become complacent. She kept pushing me, giving me more responsibility, and encouraging me in my professional growth. One of the aspects of Kimberlee's style that I appreciated most was her coaching. I felt comfortable coming to her with anything, and could count on her helping me to work through any challenges or issues that arose. She did this by empowering me to think creatively, brainstorm potential solutions, and then trusting my decisions. Kimberlee is no longer my supervisor, but to this day, she is absolutely the first person I reach out to when I need someone to tell it like it is, to remind me of what I have to offer someone or something, and encourage me to go for it. She continues to model the exceptional qualities of an successful supervisor and coach.”

Here's how you can set realistic career goals after a layoff with executive coaching.
In addition to assessing reality, being real about the grief process can be helpful to recognize and reflect on emotions that are new and different. Understanding that grief is not a straight line process and giving yourself permission to feel the feelings so the next steps are from a place of recognized grief vs. invisible unacknowledged grief.

We often say “we’re all in this together” and that mindset shapes the way we work with the people who work in the private sector. We don’t differentiate between our members who work for local government, from people who work with local government.
