Careers are no longer linear. It’s very unusual for us to stay with one employer for life. Your career will take lots of twists and turns along the way and that’s usually when you learn the most about yourself and what success looks like for you! We recommend these tips to help keep you motivated during those times when reaching your career goals doesn’t quite go to plan: 🧘 Don’t get distracted by your connection’s achievements on social media! 🏃➡️ Unfortunately, privilege still plays a part in people’s careers, so others may have had a head start. 💪 It’s not a race and the lessons you learn along the way will make you stronger. 🤔 Think about what success means to you and break it down into tangible short to long term goals. 😄 Job title and salary may seem like obvious goals but it may not be what makes you happy. 🤝 Appreciate the small wins along the way and focus on building your network as they will help you on your journey. 🤗 Re-frame your mindset, consider the challenges you’ve overcome and value what you have achieved!

Here’s how I help my clients have a successful career change! Moving from one job to another is easy. It’s making it a success that’s the challenge! 1. As I always say, knowing what you want is the key to success. You have to do the pre work - that goes without saying! 2. Do your research into the area that you want to move into - you need to know what it takes to work in that industry or field 3. Find out what it might be like to do that job - speak to people who are doing it now or even people who have transitioned out and ask them about their experiences - warts n all! 4. What are the entry requirements? Do you need to retrain? Are you motivated to do what it takes? 5. If the answer to the above is no, think about how else you might be able to use your skills or get a sense of satisfaction from elsewhere 6. Research the market - there’s no point going all out to break into a new career area if there’s no vacancies or demand for your skills! 7. Think about other ways you can dip your toe into your career change risk free eg free courses or volunteer work 8. If it’s a radical career change, work out what you need to earn to be able to take a step down if needed to get on your new career ladder 9. Utilise your networks! Who do you know who can help you? 10. Once you know what you want and what you need to do, take action and update your CV and Linkedin profile so everything is in alignment! 11. Get an accountability buddy or coach to help you to stay focused when things get tough 💪 What else would you add?
