Marshall B. Carr Launches Pivoting Now to Help Professionals, Students, and Organizations Navigate Career Transition in a Changing Workforce
Los Angeles, California — May 22, 2026 — Veteran business executive, speaker, and author Marshall B. Carr today announced the official launch of Pivoting Now, a new platform designed to support individuals and organizations navigating one of the defining challenges of our time: career disruption.
As layoffs, industry consolidation, automation, and artificial intelligence continue to reshape the workforce, Pivoting Now was created to offer something often missing during periods of transition: real-world leadership, honest conversation, and practical direction.
Founded by Carr after more than 25 years leading operations, supply chain strategy, and organizational transformation across major global brands in entertainment, media, and manufacturing, Pivoting Now serves a broad audience that includes displaced professionals, college students preparing to enter the workforce, technical school graduates, corporate leaders managing organizational change, and institutions looking to better prepare the next generation of talent.
“Career disruption can feel deeply personal, but it’s also one of the most universal experiences in today’s economy,” said Marshall B. Carr, Founder of Pivoting Now. “My mission is to help people understand that a pivot is not the end of a chapter. It’s often the beginning of the most meaningful work they’ll ever do.”
Pivoting Now offers a range of services and initiatives designed to meet individuals and organizations where they are, including:
Keynote speaking engagements for colleges, universities, leadership organizations, and corporate teams
Mentorship and workforce readiness programs for students and early career professionals
Career transition coaching for professionals navigating layoffs, reinvention, or leadership change
Strategic consulting for employers managing workforce restructuring and internal communications
Podcast conversations with leaders, innovators, and individuals who have successfully navigated career pivots
Thought leadership content, articles, and upcoming book projects focused on resilience, leadership, and the future of work
At its core, Pivoting Now is built on the belief that while industries may change, human potential does not. Through storytelling, strategy, and actionable guidance, the platform aims to help people move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
