Concerns about financial security are on the rise in today’s rapidly changing job market. How to be successful in times of uncertainty? Here’s how.
Job security used to be defined by a set of significant goals built over time that allow you to progress and feel proud of your achievements. A steady job makes life meaningful, gives you purpose, pays you enough money to live and represents your expertise. Ultimately, your career defines who you are and what you do. But life doesn’t always turn out the way you want – especially not in this day and age.
What happens if your career suddenly becomes less valuable, even if you still enjoy it? Should you continue to make less money or follow a new path? You might find the idea of changing jobs daunting. Perhaps you’re worried about what will happen if you fail.
These are some questions you may have asked yourself to determine whether you’re on the right path, in terms of your career progression. Thankfully, there are strategies you can put in place now to ensure you don’t hit a dead end in the future. Workplace transformation specialist, author and communication strategist Sihle Bolani believes it’s possible for everyone to achieve long-term career goals, whether starting a new job or building on an existing one.
