Here's how you can recognize when it's time for a career change.

In my experience, if you're thinking of changing your career, watch out for these three signs: 1. No Growth: If you're not learning or advancing, seek roles that offer skill development and growth opportunities. 2. Job Unhappiness: Persistent dissatisfaction or lack of motivation suggests it might be time for a change. Find a career that excites and motivates you. 3. Misalignment: If your job no longer aligns with your personal goals or interests, explore new opportunities that match your passions and values. Good luck in your next career move 🦾

Job dissatisfaction is a great indicator to start looking for opportunities elsewhere. Besides, with job dissatisfaction, it can lead to stress, and with stress, your productivity will decrease. One of the things you have to understand is that the culture of the organization is what drives most of what's happening in that environment. If leadership is not willing to change the culture or to even bring people on board to help change the culture, staying where you are experiencing job dissatisfaction is not worth it and worst, it's not good for your mental health. Your well-being is important, and to do extraordinary work, it is very important.

It's time to move on if you are not excited on a Monday, have not learnt something by Friday and you are not working on something that demands the best version of you.

First, if you feel consistently unhappy, unfulfilled, or stressed at work, it may indicate that your current role isn't a good fit. A lack of motivation or enthusiasm for tasks that once excited you can also be a red flag. If there's no room for growth or advancement in your current position, you might feel stagnant. Other signs include a misalignment between your job and personal values, interests, frequent physical or mental exhaustion, & the desire to pursue a different passion or interest. Feeling undervalued or unrecognised can also contribute to the need for change. If you find yourself daydreaming about a different career or hate going to work, it might be time to change jobs that better align with your goals & aspirations.

If one is not passionate one can continue with the job and perhaps be productive if one is a compulsive performer. However, one may not deliver to his/her optimum level. Whether to switch jobs depends on the availability of a job where one can be passionate, especially about the purpose of the organization. If not, then are you doing work that you are passionate about? Enjoy your work and ignore the job situation.

Continuamente me encuentro con gente que no siente ninguna pasión por su trabajo. Simplemente acuden cada día y lo ejecutan como robots. Y cuando les pregunto qué les ata a su trabajo, suelen hablar de estabilidad económica. Incluso cuando no lo dicen, el trasfondo suele ser el miedo a lo desconocido, la estabilidad de un salario y no sentirse seguros de su valía en el mercado. En estos casos, yo recomiendo revisar qué es lo que te apasiona, en qué te gustaría desarrollarte e ir a por ello. La vida es demasiado corta como para dedicar años y años a algo que no nos satisface por tener una aparente seguridad económica.

1. Changes in the sector either from growth or decrease/ closer of a sector activities either due to consumers demand, global economic change or technology change among others 2. New interest and discovery of own talents/ capabilities

Lack of Motivation and Engagement: If you find yourself consistently feeling bored, uninspired, or disengaged from your work, it could be a sign that your current career is no longer fulfilling.

Paixão tende a ser algo com prazo de validade! Vide os cases em relacionamentos. O grande desafio é encontrar seu PROPÓSITO. Aí estarão elementos motivadores, alavancas de engajamento, curiosidade, entre outros, capazes de manter a continuidade. Importante destacar a finitude das coisas! Normal você gostar de algo por um tempo e depois querer novos desafios, querer respirar ares de mudança. Qual o problema? Sentir e reconhecer esses sentimentos, permitindo-se a mudança, são elementos fundamentais para sua realização pessoal.

Uno de los principales motivos de insatisfacción profesional es el estancamiento y la falta de oportunidades de crecimiento profesional. En este caso, es importante sopesar la posibilidad de crecimiento en tu empresa actual y, si no es posible, quizás pasar a la acción e ir a por el siguiente reto. Si sientes vértigo o miedo a lo desconocido, quizás puedas apoyarte en un coach o mentor que te ayude a definir tus objetivos, tus próximos pasos y que te acompañe emocionalmente en el proceso de transición.

Limited Growth Opportunities: If you feel stagnant in your current role, with little room for advancement or professional development, it may be time to seek out a new career path that offers more growth potential.

The passion is the driving force of the professional growth. Everyday passion make you to learn new skills. These skills will able to connect the dots in the future to achieve great things. Learning is the gap between ordinary to renowned.

One thing that is important is to know what's the next thing you will learn in your job if you feel like you are not learning anything new and don't see anything new to learn coming in the next weeks/months it's time for a change.

Você não tem mais espaço de crescimento na sua organização? Por que você acredita que essa é a única empresa no universo a precisar de suas habilidades e competência? Autoestima em alta e autovalorização são elementos importantes para o bem-estar e sucesso na carrreira. Faça o auto-exame regular do seu querer e do seu bem-estar, cruzando com suas habilidades e competências. O resultado final nem sempre será estar na atual organização. O próximo passo é trabalhar a coragem de ser feliz!

Hace tiempo leí una frase que me marcó: "Si tú no tomas decisiones, la vida las tomará por ti". Y es una gran verdad. En ocasiones, la vida toma decisiones por nosotros y nos obliga a hacer ese cambio que no nos atrevíamos. Otras veces, simplemente cambian nuestras circunstancias y ello nos lleva a tomar decisiones. En cualquier caso, es cada vez más habitual que las diferentes etapas de nuestra vida nos lleven por retos profesionales diferentes. Atrás quedó la época en que nuestros padres trabajaban toda una vida en la misma empresa. Por tanto, si tu vida cambia y tu trabajo actual no te permite compatibilizar estos cambios, quizás es el momento de buscar un cambio laboral.

“If you think you've had your fill of the job, it's time for a change,” one of my managers told me. He was right, and that's how I came to choose freelance work. Today's working world offers a wide range of contracts to keep you employed, and you have to seize your chance. Freelancing is only possible if you are recognized as an expert, but you also need to have a solid address book to be able to offer your services. The change must be well thought out, and never made on the spur of the moment, as this is a decision made in frustration, and will never be crowned with success. Another key word is anticipation, a quality to be developed and built upon.

Changing Values and Priorities: As you grow and evolve, your personal values, goals, and priorities may shift. If your current career no longer aligns with your new priorities, a change may be warranted.

Career and professional elevation make to improve your standard of living, which in turn changes the family dynamics and personal goals.

There are so many different ways to define "successful". One of those ways, in my mind, is balance. Finding a way to fulfill your professional goals while maintaining a healthy balance within your personal life. As such, many of us need to be honest with ourselves and determine the legacy we wish to establish, whether it be with our families or with our professions (or both), and align them accordingly. If you want to be present at the major milestones your kids experience, it may be time to find the career that allows maximum schedule flexibility and prioritizes home life in the company culture. If you prefer travel, it could be time to find a position that needs you to network globally. Find the career that balances your life.

Persistent Stress and Burnout: High levels of stress that don't seem to improve, even with time off or lifestyle changes, can indicate that your current career may be unsuitable for your wellbeing.

Una de las actividades que me apasionan en mi trabajo es la mentoría, porque me da la oportunidad de acompañar a las personas en su crecimiento personal y profesional, es un momento de aprendizaje mutuo y un espacio para reflexionar sobre puntos de inflexión, decisiones, desafíos, visión de futuro, etc. La mentoría es una herramienta que forma a la persona porque se trabaja con sus creencias limitantes, miedos y áreas de oportunidad que no le permiten avanzar en su trayectoria o meta profesional, es un acompañamiento práctico, haciendo las cosas, porque impulsas al mentee para salirse de su zona de confort, lo invitas a tomar acción, cambias su perspectiva para ver nuevos escenarios o soluciones, etc. Te invito a buscar a un mentor.

I always go back to my first managers for advices with whom I learned a lot, everytime I seek for some guidance for concerning my professional path.

It's like Nespresso advertising, indeed what else ? More like the need for challenges, getting out of routine work, the need for intellectual challenges. What else or what's next ? What next will boost my brain, what next will drive my passion and allow me to do so ? The jump in the big NEW !

Alle o.g. Punkte können eine Rolle spielen, wenn es um einen Karrierewechsel geht. Für eine nachhaltig zufriedenstellende berufliche Veränderung ist es allerdings nicht nur wichtig zu wissen, was man nicht mehr will. Vor allem ist es entscheidend sich Klarheit zu verschaffen darüber, was man künftig will, wohin die eigene Reise gehen soll. Daher kann es hilfreich sein, nicht spontan einen Wechsel zu vollziehen, weil auf der anderen Seite das 'Gras grüner ist' (z.B. das Gehalt). Es hilft auch andere Faktoren bei einer Entscheidung zu berücksichtigen, wie z.B. die eigenen Wünsche, Vorstellungen, das Umfeld in dem man sich befindet, die aktuellen und künftigen Veränderungen der Arbeitswelt und vieles mehr.

These could be some pointers: When you feel you are not learning anything new. You do not feel passionate. You do not see any progression Family issues Stress. No freedom to experiment or express your opinions. Monotony.

Career change because of growth constraints, stress etc are risky because you may end up with the same problems in your new career. Such changes must be driven by need to maximize ROE - return on effort. For example you leave your job to become an entrepreneur. Or leave a maths related role to become computer engineer or quant analyst.
