Über den Autor / die Autorin
Adam Forbes spent 25 years working happily and successfully within the four walls of major corporates in marketing, strategy, business development and finance, working within energy, retail, government and consulting - bp, Shell, Aramco, BT, Cabinet Office, John Lewis to name a few. He saw at first-hand what happens when re-structuring or other significant disruptions to the workforce results in individuals making the choice to leave or having that decision forced upon them, and observed how talented people from across all levels and roles often struggle to see beyond traditional corporate career paths.
In 2020 he made his own leap, establishing himself in a new career as a valued advisor and coach to corporates, startups and individuals and programme director for Startupbootcamp.
Since then, he's spent time interviewing more than a hundred Corporate Escapologists to understand the formula to leave corporate life safely and successfully.
Adam writes a successful blog as the Corporate Escapologist about his time leaving a leading corporate to start up a new business and build a more varied, dynamic career designed around his values and needs. His Corporate Escapology podcast features people who have left corporate life to build new careers using the skills, experiences and know-how they gained during their corporate career.
Through his work coaching and advising fellow Corporate Escapologists to leave corporate jobs, through choice or redundancy, Adam has identified a simple method to help them move effectively through the stages of disorientation, fear and panic, to a greater appreciation of their own capabilities and options for the next phase of their careers.
