Career Decisions… Career Transitions… Not a set and forget, one time deal. You’ll be making both of these, more than you probably anticipated. I snapped this pic on my morning walk today. It looks fairly easy to step across. But it’s also easy enough to slip and fall into the water! Transitions can be tricky. But they are necessary, otherwise you stay stuck where you are, or worse, in limbo between past and a more fulfilling future. I first learned to jump across big rocks in Anstruther, Scotland when we’d visit my grandparents. I’ve also had my fair share of career transitions across sectors, professions and modes of employment.

✨✨Half of those who responded to last week's poll question, "What is your top career goal for 2024?" said they plan to get a new job in a new company. Changing careers altogether was in second place (followed by pursuing an internal promotion or a credential or certification). ➡️➡️If this is you, but you're not sure what you want in your next role or career move, here's an EASY way to gain clarity in 20 minutes or less: Make a list of the things you DON'T want to do or the type of work environment you DON'T want. Then you can reverse engineer and start plotting your plan for your job transition. #career #job #jobsearch

What did you expect would happen in your career? How does it differ from the reality of your career today? Today, I’m continuing my mini-series on career conversations to have at work. So far, we have covered: 🏆 Your career goals (a conversation with yourself!)  ⚖️ Aligning your goals and values to your organizations (a conversation with your manager)    Today, we’re talking about the expectations convo. You can try this conversation on day one of your new job or whenever you embark on a new project. Heck, you can have this conversation every week if it helps create clarity in your work!    Here are a few questions to help you approach this career conversation at a macro- and micro-level. Macro Expectations at Work 📚 What do we know about the history of my role? What did other employees manage or achieve optimally in this role? 📆 What will a successful first year look like for someone in this role? ☘️ What are the three main priorities for this role? Micro Expectations at Work 📐 What is the goal of this specific project?  🥊 What impact is my contribution expected to make?  🎉 How will I know I was successful in this meeting/on this phone call/in completing this project? Set your career expectations early if possible. Like many of these career conversations, this talk will open you up to future conversations about expectations, especially when adjusting or modifying them. Check out the link in the first comment to read more about the five most important convos for your career.
