There's a lot of good material on job searches and other layoff related topics to help you get through if you are unfortunate enough to be laid-off or downsized. As usual we help you from a different angle. We believe that what you do while you have a job is what is going to determine whether you spiral downward when laid-off or prosper. If you plan properly, it's possible to end up better off after a layoff than before.
