So below I've shared 6 essential elements that determine whether your career plans will turn into real successes. 🔄 Repost to empower others to achieve their dream careers effectively. #leadershipdevelopment, #professionalwomen

Why is it that every time we complete a year in an organization, the same question pops up: "Are you thinking of switching companies? But here's my take: Why should we always look for the next opportunity elsewhere? What about growing within the organization that has already invested in us? Sticking around isn't about comfort—it's about commitment. It's about building deeper relationships, mastering our craft, and contributing to something bigger over time. When we stay, we become part of the organization's fabric. We gain a deeper understanding of its vision and values, and in turn, we have the chance to shape its future. Growth doesn't always mean moving on. Sometimes, it means moving up, right where you are. It’s about finding new challenges within the same walls and continuing to add value where it truly counts. Let’s redefine success not just by the number of jobs on our resume, but by the impact we make in the places we choose to stay. #CareerGrowth #Loyalty #ProfessionalDevelopment #StayAndGrow #ImpactfulCareers

Exploring horizontal career moves? Look no further than your own company! Opportunities for growth often extend beyond the vertical climb. Embrace the chance to explore lateral moves, like transitioning to a different department or taking on new responsibilities. These horizontal moves can lead to unforeseen career enrichment and growth. Some of the most engaged employees I’ve observed are those that take on horizontal opportunities to grow their professional skills. By doing this, they have also grown their professional network and continue to inspire creativity and innovation to those around them with their diverse skill sets and ideas. Don't overlook the potential for a fulfilling and dynamic career within your organization. Embrace the horizontal avenues and see where they can take you!

As we reach the midpoint of our careers, it's natural to reflect on the opportunities we may have missed and the expectations that remain unfulfilled. But let's remember that this is also a time of great opportunity for growth and self-reflection. Experts suggest that we can use our experience to reevaluate priorities and chart a course that aligns with our goals for the second half of our professional lives. 💭Why not embrace this chance to learn, grow, and make the most of what's to come?

What happened to you once you joined your *second* company? Last week, I met again someone who had been working with the same company for more than 30 years, practically since they left school. I find this mind-blowing, especially in our day and age. While I make no judgment about it and the person was a happy camper, it reminds me of the crazy value that people get who intentionally 'collect' experiences in different companies, especially in the same industry. I am not talking of 'job hopping' for the next best gig.  I am referring to intentionally 'collecting' diverse working cultures. It broadens mental horizons. It changes perspectives. You have crazy 'duh' moments when you notice you took so many things for granted...that there are many more ways of working than you thought at first. You realize that you had company culture blinders on. I noticed that people who have experience of working in at least 2-3 companies just look at the world of work with a different, mature perspective. And that's why I truly believe that having experience in multiple companies can be a career booster on its own. It's something you just can't get within one organization, well, by definition. Curious...what did you realize once you joined your *second* company?   #career #perspective #executivecoaching
