Your career path does not need to be one size fits all. In fact, today's episode will help you to explore the possibility that your encore career could unfold down a completely different path than what you are used to. Though there may be challenges that come with switching gears and pivoting to different lines of work or specialties, you will find that often employers appreciate the skills and expertise you bring to the table as an experienced and skilled worker.
To help us unpack the benefits and challenges of making career transitions, I have brought my friend and former colleague, Dave Whan, onto the show today for a discussion. Dave has lots of experience in making the switch to new fields, specialities and spheres within the job market. In our discussion, he will share his perspectives as a chief human resources officer as well as additional perspectives from his role with the federal reserve bank and the various other roles that he has taken on throughout his career.Dave has a lot to offer us about his journey and the observations he's made throughout his experience with career transitioning. His tips can help you to broaden your horizons and take on a career move that will bring you the satisfaction you are looking for, even if it seems out of reach.
We'll dive deeper into these concepts:
- How to prepare to make a career transitions
- What to keep in mind when pivoting from one skill set to the next
