Are you aware that an average working professional changes his or her job once every four years? Amongst the reasons, redundancy, company downsizing or a company moving offshore seem to top the list. Or simply, your job function has been eliminated. Your job has disappeared. Gone are those days - during your parents' time when hard work, sacrifice, dedication was a simple formula for long term job security and a predictable climb up the ladder of success. If you subscribe to this precept in your career planning, you will be totally disappointed. Your employers still expect hard work, sacrifice and dedication from you but for a different motive - to boost the company's profit profile. You can be replaced. Your job can be eliminated and replaced by a computerised gizmo.
The job security and steady, predictable professional growth that your parents enjoyed as a norm is now a thing of the past. It's now history. You have to wake up and face a new reality in career planning. We live in a time of immense change. We now face a totally different economic scenario. You have to be fully and mentally prepared to change job or career once every four years or sooner.
So, what's next?
Embark on a strategic life-long career planning now!
