CAREER CHANGE: Creating Career FIT

You’re in a "dead-end" job or industry… or out of work and seeking a challenging change of direction to jump start your career. It will take a concerted career planning effort, a strong sense of purpose and self discipline as you implement your strategic plan; and the patience to process your way through the tactical approaches to effective change. Its time to restore your confidence in your own ability to impact and control the continuity of your career.

Chart your own course:

Career success is where preparation and implementation meets opportunity!  -- The Pilot

Some waypoints to consider when charting your own career...

"Get Outside Your Box" ... and bring fresh air and creative solutions to the table;

Target Employers... It brings focus to your research and networking efforts;

Cultivate Contacts... Never be without a next contact to make, NEVER;

Learn from your new world of work opportunity... Put yourself in a constant state of market awareness and visibility;

Align your credentials with your objectives... This may lead to re-training and re-tooling of your skill sets.  Stay current with technology;

Keep up with what can be, not just what is or has been... Communicating yourself in a positive, future-oriented manner.

NEVER BE A JOB-HUNTER AGAIN... Learn to create visibility by being an interested, motivated professional who could be available for the next right work opportunity... at any time during the rest of your working lifetime.

...And when its time for transition to something new...
