The One Reason You Don't Do the Hard Work of Professional Development
Published: Thu, 07/28/22
Hello !
You've been waiting long enough for a change and focused on the outcomes, but the work and golden handcuffs have you in their clutches or you're too comfy to stir the pot.
So, the best route for those that don't want to do the hard work will be to stay put, and that's okay, too.
You Have to Be Sold on Yourself
If you want to shake up some career opportunities, then you must prepare so you can succeed in conversations that land referrals and make every interview move you forward.
That only comes with hard work including some soul-searching, research, and preparation to know the challenges of the companies you want to work for and being ready to problem-solve, as you have already done in the past.
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
The payoff for executing on a career strategy is high.
Based on the conclusion by ZIPPIA RESEARCH that evaluated staying put vs. switching jobs...
"The average annual salary increase for staying at your current job is 3.1%. Compared to job-switchers average annual raise of 5.8%, it usually pays better to join a new company than stay with your current one."
