Page 198 Elizabeth Ross originally described five stages of grief and warning and later, with David Kessler, added a sixth. You may recognize these stages if you've ever attended a course on change management. And you may have seen them in others if you have ever had to fire anyone. Denial , shock, and disbelief that your career is coming to an end anger, that work that you love doing has gone. Bargaining, all the what if And regrets. Low mood, sadness, regret, fearing uncertainty as you let go the old and look towards the new dialogue, reaching out to others to make sense of what has happened and asking who am I now?. Acceptance, acknowledging the reality of the lost, and adjusting to it as you begin to detach, beginning to achieve some distance and objectivity. Moving on, finding a sense of purpose again, and beginning to get involved in new activities
