Career Change Maker | Career Clarity, Career Opportunities, Career Pivots, Burnout, Corporate Job, Income # 168: The One Thing You Need To Make A Successful Career Change
In today’s episode of the ‘Career Change Maker’ podcast, I talk about the one thing you need to make a successful career change. If you are someone who is feeling frustrated in your current role then the likelihood is that you're taking this approach of starting to look at job boards, and searching for opportunities.
I think that the people who are willing to innovate, who are willing to adapt, and who are willing to look at different ways of doing things, are the ones who are going to succeed and rise both inside organizations and industries in general.
Episode Highlights
· 04:30 - There's a time and a place for everything, and when you don't do things in order, you end up sabotaging your results.
· 06:15 - When I talk about commitment, it comes down to you making a decision, like, is this something that I want to do or if I am ready to make a career change?
· 09:05 - The reality is, when you're in the midst of something, or making a transition it isn't necessarily easy, but if you have that commitment, then you can go back to that.
· 11:00 - If you are sitting in your organization, and you are saying this isn't aligned with my values then I want you to know that you are showing up spending a lot of time. You are contributing there, when you could be making a contribution somewhere else, and be moving towards making the type of impact that you want to make.
· 19:10 – I want to encourage you that the one thing that you need is the commitment to the process or commitment to figuring out what this role needs to look like.
What you will learn:
- There's a misalignment between how you're showing up and how you are putting yourself out there in the market, and the type of person who's looking for someone to hire within their organization. So if you are thinking about making a move, and you're not sure what that looks like, slow down, and pause, don't start updating anything just yet.
- Commitment to the process is the biggest thing, commitment to saying that I'm going to make a career change so that it's not dependent on what the outcome looks like. If the commitment is not there, then the likelihood of you staying in the course and you do what is required to make this transition is going to be slim.
- The people that sit in positions of authority are making a huge impact on the way that we do things and the way that we do life. So, if you are in your situation, think about what impact you could potentially be making if you were to take yourself out of that environment where you don't feel like it's the right place for you to be.
- When it is possible for you to design the type of lifestyle that you want, it is also possible for you to enjoy the work that you do and make an impact through it.
