Strategizing Your Career Transition with Absolute Clarity

Changing careers can feel like standing on a cliff edge—exhilarating and terrifying. Without a roadmap, you risk missteps. My three-phase career transition model gives you confidence and clarity at every turn:

Phase 1: Strengths & Passions Audit

Conduct a deep-dive inventory: list your top skills, past successes, and activities that energize you. Use assessments (StrengthsFinder, VIA) to validate your findings. This audit ensures your next move aligns with what you do best and love most.

Phase 2: Market Mapping

Research industries and roles that value your profile. Conduct 5–7 informational interviews. Identify three target roles and the skills or certifications needed. This research narrows your focus and reveals non-obvious opportunities.

Phase 3: Action Roadmap

Draft a six-month plan: update your resume, enroll in key courses, network weekly, and apply strategically. Break each task into weekly to-dos. Celebrate every small win—completing a course module, getting a positive response—to build momentum and reduce fear.

Clients who follow this model often secure interviews within eight weeks and land new roles by week twelve—transitioning smoothly and confidently. Embrace the structure, trust your strengths, and step boldly into your next chapter.
