Description
Nancy Widmann discusses her book, “I Didn’t See It Coming.” She begins by explaining how she and the co-authors of the book, Elaine Eisenman and Amy Kopelan, were all suddenly fired from their jobs in the business world. She talks about different managerial styles and how to increase your marketability when looking for a new job. Widmann gives a few key hints to knowing when you’re about to be fired: strange lawyers in the building, closed doors, and being left out of meetings and dinners. She recommends to always have an exit strategy just in case. Widmann ends the interview by describing how she was the president of CBS radio until she got fired.
