How to figure out what to do next in your career
Supporting ambitious, entrepreneurial professionals to decide and plan what’s next. How to figure out what to do next in your careerDon't stay stuck in indecision for another year. This January, use our ten-step guide to take action towards career clarity.We’ve almost made it through January! I hope the start of 2023 has been good to you. For many, this time of year brings real momentum towards the goals you’ve set out to achieve. In client sessions, I feel the energy of the new year painting a picture of possibility and expectation for the year ahead. There are dream job interviews happening, and resignations being handed in. There are new business plans, pivots and projects. Some of you won’t be able to relate. You cannot make real plans for the year because you’re missing an essential ingredient of this process: knowing what it is that you want to do in the first place. When you can’t decide what’s next it impacts your ability to make clear choices about your career growth, your location, finances, and other lifestyle components. Everything feels up for debate. Rather than gunning for that next promotion or £10k per month, you’re gunning for clarity. Perhaps you are the kind of person who will run full-steam ahead towards the targets you set for yourself, but when those aren’t clear, expend too much energy tripping over your own mental loops, questioning it all. It’s tiring! If this resonates keep reading to explore why we get so stumped figuring out ‘what’s next’ and then identify the tools to find solace in this process. There’s a 10-step guide I’ve created for you can keep handy, too.
