Do you ever get that feeling that the role or organization you are in is just not quite a fit? It may be painful or uncomfortable or perhaps you just feel some apathy or a general lack of satisfaction.  Maybe you love the organization and the industry, but you feel you have accomplished all you can in your current role and you’re ready for more?

 

This is a normal occurrence on many career journeys. I have been there a couple of times myself over the last twenty plus years. First of all, I want to assure you this doesn’t mean you picked the wrong career or that you have to even leave your organization, but what it might meanis that it is time to level up your career alignment.


Whatever the reason, if you aren’t feeling a level of joy, excitement or “let’s get this done” attitude you could be ready for a new challenge, a new opportunity, or a new path for your career. 


To help you navigate this, I have a mashed up process you can follow. It's a combination of gap-analysis, self-awareness and positive visualization. Yes, I like to use all my tools to tackle big challenges!


Here are the five steps I recommend:


  1. Know what’s important to you (really important)
  2. Imagine how changes in your professional life could create greater alignment to what is important for you?
  3. Consider what’s not working for you right now - what are you accepting that you shouldn’t and that’s holding you back from what you want?
  4. Brainstorm all the ways you can bridge the gap.
  5. Make a plan with deadlines and slay it!
