You’re feeling stuck in your career. What’s the best way to get unstuck?

My advice is to hire a career coach and begin the exploration process. We often feel stuck and don’t have time or emotional bandwidth to figure out what we want next. A coach will help you figure out why you have become stuck. Is it complacency? Boredom? Fear? Burnout? Is there a path forward with your current job and is it a path you would like to pursue? Is it you or is it the job, company or setting? A coach can help you on various levels beginning with identifying your values and skills, your “must haves”, then help you identify possibilities, they can help you execute the job search process and balance your time so as not to get overwhelmed or discouraged. It is someone in your corner who at the very least makes you accountable.

To get unstuck in your career, start by assessing your goals, strengths, and interests. Consider seeking guidance from a career counselor or mentor to gain fresh perspectives and insights. Update your skills through training or certifications relevant to your desired path. Networking with professionals in your field can open doors to new opportunities and collaborations. Embrace flexibility and be open to exploring different avenues or industries. Reflect on past achievements and challenges to identify patterns and areas for growth. Remember to stay resilient and proactive in pursuing your aspirations to overcome career stagnation effectively.

Feeling stuck in your career is common but can be a catalyst for change. Steps to break free: Self-Reflection: Understand why you feel stuck. Is it the role, company culture, or career path? Rekindle Passion: Reconnect with your core values and motivations. What drew you to this field initially? Explore and Learn: Take on new challenges, upskill, network, and explore different career paths. Craft a Plan: Set SMART goals, identify resources, and break down steps into manageable tasks. Take Action: Start small, celebrate achievements, and adjust your plan as needed. Trust the process and stay motivated.

Tire um tempo para se autoavaliar e refletir sobre sua carreira atual, seus interesses, valores e objetivos profissionais. Identifique áreas de insatisfação ou estagnação e pense em quais mudanças ou ajustes podem ser necessários para avançar.

Be real with yourself, and just ask yourself what is the real reason behind the stuck? Lack of progression? Change in values and goals in life? Fear of colleagues? Or what? Then be real enough to say, if its not this now then what exactly am I looking for? Getting a coach would help but being real with those questions would be a much more cost effective method to start

Spend time building out your network in the areas where you want to learn and grow. Watch TED and TEDx talks to spark ideas, and then find ways to connect with the people who gave those talks. If you're in an area where you can network in person -- attend community events and join groups with people who are passionate about the same things you are. When I felt tired and disconnected in 2020 and 2021, I applied for my own TEDx event license. Since then, I have met the most remarkable, inspiring people!!

Cultive sua rede profissional participando de eventos de networking, conectando-se com colegas de trabalho e buscando mentores ou coachs que possam oferecer orientação e apoio em sua jornada de carreira. O networking pode abrir portas para novas oportunidades e perspectivas.

Explore is the key word! Sometimes we are too used to the 4 walls and the setting we are in! Hence get out there, do something different and explore during the weekend for once Let your vision broaden and life becomes more meaningful to work in as well!

Le réseau est partout autour de vous, vos proches, vos anciens collègues et patron, même vos voisins... exemple ? Une étudiante cherche un stage dans une société de bourse. elle en parle, un peu malgré elle à la concierge de son immeuble, laquelle... fait le ménage dans une société de bourse et lui propose de la mettre en relation avec le patron de la dite société... Moralité, elle a eu son stage, le patron trouvant très judicieux de la part de son agente d'entretien d'avoir pensé à le mettre en relation avec cette étudiante !

Get feedback and guidance from those around you! They know you best in terms of your own strengths and weaknesses! Try it out and just ask your boss or co-workers hey, was wondering if you had any feedback for me to improve, look forward to or even in general (to get to know how far you have been)

Oui, c'est important, si les avis restent objectifs. Je me souviens, en tant que chasseuse de tête (vie précédente), je prenais des références sur les candidats présentés au client... Une reco trop dithyrambique m'alertait immédiatement... "Allez, cet ancien collaborateur a bien des défauts"... et si le commentateur n'a rien préparé, il risque de sortir la "tare du siècle"... dommage ! donc, toujours en parler avec lui avant de leui demander une reco, cela évitera les mauvaises surprises

Esteja aberto a explorar novas oportunidades dentro ou fora de sua organização atual. Isso pode incluir buscar promoções, transferências de departamento, mudanças de carreira ou até mesmo empreendedorismo. Esteja atento às oportunidades que possam alavancar seus pontos fortes e interesses.

Evidemment, se former, encore et toujours, apprendre, faire fonctionner ses méninges, aiguiser sa curiosité, pour pouvoir comprendre de quoi l'on parle et surtout se reconvertir vers de nouveaux métiers sans se sentir à la traine

A key to showing your value and showing up with confidence and authenticity is to own your unique ways of working and stop trying to do it someone else's way. Your brain is actually hardwired to solve problems, make decisions and take action in very specific ways. Understand how your brain needs you to work, do your work in those ways and not only will you add MORE value, you'll have more fun doing the the work, too! How do you pinpoint how your brain works best: it starts with the Kolbe A Index (NOT another personality test), proven to uncover what's RIGHT with you.

Busque constantemente desafios e oportunidades de crescimento que o levem fora de sua zona de conforto. Assumir novas responsabilidades, liderar projetos importantes ou buscar projetos paralelos pode ajudá-lo a expandir suas habilidades e experiências.
