Word of the Month: Rebirth
A note, from Richard Edge: As we celebrate the start of a rebirth of Careerships Alumni, this month reflect on which version of you that you would like to bring to life in 2025. Time to get planning.
Moving into the final stretch of the year, there’s one thing you might notice: October is packed with product launches, big conferences, and major announcements across industries. It’s not just a coincidence — October is a critical month for many companies to make their mark, and it’s a trend that’s been growing.
Take Apple, for example. October is one of their favourite months for launching new products, particularly iPhones and MacBooks. They time these releases perfectly to be top of mind for consumers just before the holiday season. By launching new tech in October, Apple benefits from months of buzz before the holiday shopping rush, which drives sales and sets the tone for their year-end performance.
For many companies, launching in October allows them to get in front of customers and the media before competitors who may wait for November or December. It’s a smart way to capture attention during a time when everyone’s looking for the next big thing to finish the year strong.
The start of Q4 gives businesses a chance to introduce new services or products when investors and customers are closely watching the market, eager to make moves before the year wraps up.
For instance, Goldman Sachs often hosts major investor conferences in October to introduce new strategies or products, giving their clients time to act before the fiscal year ends. By timing these announcements for October, they allow investors to shift strategies and position themselves ahead of any year-end market movements. The perfect moment to get key stakeholders excited and ready to act in the last quarter.
As the year starts to wind own, it's the perfect time to reflect on where you are professionally and what steps you need to take to position yourself for success in the months ahead. Whether you’re aiming for a promotion, a career change, or a rebrand, this is the time to act.
Here’s how you can "launch yourself" this October:
It’s all about making intentional moves to end the year strong and set yourself up for an even more successful 2025. The momentum you build now will carry you forward in powerful ways.
