It's no secret... Andrea is leaving Experience. We hate to see her go, but we are extremely happy about her career move. It's really bittersweet. The transitioning period can be overwhelming-- and not just for the person leaving.
Here are some steps to make that transition easier if you are the one staying:
- Be sure to get contact information from the person leaving. You could use this person for future reference letters, networking, etc.
- Volunteer to take on part of that person's responsibilities until a replacement is found. If you worked closely with this person, you probably know a thing or two about their day-to-day tasks.
- Use your own network to look for a replacement. Think of people you know who might be a good fit for the position.
- Help ensure that this coworker enjoys his/her last few days with the company. Organize a party to celebrate all the work he/she has done. Make sure this person leaves on a good note!
- Make the replacement feel welcome. It's certainly not easy coming into a new position when everyone is still hung up on your predecessor. Show this person the ropes and help out wherever necessary.
