Career Change

Is it possible to make a big career change, even when you have a few years under your belt?  The answer is a resounding YES . . . provided you keep a few key things in mind.  Michael is joined by coach and fellow working dad Peter Gandolfo, and they discuss some of the ins and outs of making a major career pivot.  We learn about the experimental method, how to deal with friends or family who don’t seem supportive, and how to approach a big change when you aren’t sure what you want.   

Additional resources:  Herminia Ibarra’s classic on career change, Working Identity,  and the exercise-filled Next Step Partners Career Handbook for Working Professionals
