Laurie tells us we’re beautiful, I am pretty sure that is what this video is about.

Amy and I ask the expert to help us with this leadership corner question — how do I decide between taking a package or taking a job I don’t want in a restructure.
This is something that so many people are forced to decide and we collectively weigh the pros and cons with a few key themes
We all agree you should bet on yourself
Negotiate - you have more options than you realize and you should not accept the binary you are presented.
We recommend you assess the situation not only from your own seat but from the lens of emerging opportunities.
Use your time wisely - build skills, assess the market opportunity.
Don’t forget healthcare costs, you can negotiate that as well.
Pre-mortems are very helpful (and they work!).
Give a listen and tell us what we missed (or how beautiful we are!). What tools do you use to help make big decisions like this.
