Executive Career Transition Expert & Branding Strategist - Led 100s of High Potential Clients through Career Transformations, Career Pivots and Advancements - Maximizing your Career Potential

Some Career Coaches misguide clients into thinking that they can just transfer their skills to their chosen career path. Regrettably, that is only half the equation. If you lack confidence and cannot connect your career story in an authentic way to your next career choice you will not be affective. Adam Driver hasn't shared the interim journey from Marine to actor, but he probably struggled in the beginning. ✔You need a credible strategy, a bridge to your next career and have the confidence to pull it off. He has the confidence, he is charismatic, physically tall and has executive presence, all qualities which helped his career. ✔He also studied the craft of acting to become the great actor he is today. ✔Someone also gave him an opportunity and recognized his potential which launched his career; how did Adam do that? ✔With career change you need to develop new networks and new connections as people that knew you before tend to see you a certain way and often times cannot see you in another career. So it's not so simple as just having transferable skills as many career coaches tell clients leading them astray. If you want to pivot or change your career, work with someone who understands all the variables that go into how to effectively change careers.
