Need a Career Change? Or Just a Tune-Up?Here are some career questions you need to think about:
Does your job offer you a sense of purpose?
Do you feel compelled to pursue another career?
You find it hard to go to work because you’re not a fan of the company you work for? Does your company align with your values?
Do you feel valued by your employer?
Is your compensation commensurate with your contributions and experience?
In general, are you happy with your job?
If you answered “no” to anyone of these questions, then you may need a career change or at least a career tune up.
Career Expert Chris Fontanella rejoins me on A New Direction to talk about his latest book “Tune Up Your Career”.
It is going to be an eye-opening show and if you have any doubts about your career right now, first know you are not alone, and second, know that there are answers.
Chris Fontanella’s most recent book entitled, “Tune Up Your Career” is an outstanding insightful guide for those of you out there who are feeling stuck and unsure what your next career move should be.
Here are a few of the highlights should know from the book:
First having some questions in your career is normal.
Second, regardless of how you try to resist your career is going to change. And if all else stays the same…you are going to change.
Third, if you are lacking fulfillment and purpose, you are the only one who can change your career path. No excuses…you are accountable to your career.
Fourth, if you have guts, and resilience, you may be an entrepreneur. It’s not easy. And you may have to work two jobs at first, but how much value is there in having the freedom? Only you can decide.
This book is for anyone who feels like they have been consumed by the “machine” and has now awakened to realize there is something more, but not sure what it is.
Please thank the sponsors of A New Direction for their continued financial support!
