Many of us are asking ourselves profound questions about the work we do. Rewarding work drives social bonds and connectivity and keeps us mentally and physically alert, while studies show that long-periods of worklessness has the opposite effect, especially if finances are restricted. Yet, the work that you do in your 20s and 30s may not be the work you want to do in your 40s and 50s. Passions change, and life events can influence the need or aspiration to pursue a different course. The pandemic proved the impetus for thousands of people to make work pivots and in the age of the 100-year life, career change may be more common, but society is still entrenched in the old linear path and not yet programmed to support new work and life structures. So, how can you shed the fear and emotional stress of trying something new?
REGISTERLondon Business School‘s upcoming think ahead event, From Traditional to Trailblazing: Strategies for Mid-Career Transition will provide you with practical strategies to support you through a successful mid-career change, learning from global industry practitioners with real-world experience.
