Have you been in a situation where everything seems to be going well? Then BAM! The balance is upset and you have to face a change. How do you deal with it?

Imagine a scenario where your job has disappeared.

Although the process will be the same in any situation, this is the moment when you need to stop, take a step back and look at the bigger picture. What is the worse that could happen? Is it life threatening? It may feel as though it is at that particular moment but it probably isn’t.

It may well be challenging but you have met challenges before and know you can overcome it.

If you have been prudent you will have been putting some money into savings for just this sort of situation, or you may get a redundancy rockclimbing in the summer. The Arctic Leadership Challenges are my legacy.

I set it up so that it can be run by my children in the future and it will provide another revenue stream for them, or they can sell it to someone else.
