Career Change

4/18/2024

When having a conversation with someone who is ready to make a career change, here’s a question I ask.


Do you have to change, or do you want to change?


It frames out the path forward.

Specifically, if you need to change, then selectivity is lower and expediency is a priority. Things have gone sideways.

Wanting to change, can be a bit more on your terms.


Curious if you’ve ever looked at change this way.

47-65, clouds, rain.


Make it a great day, everyone!
