Hi ,

If you’ve been thinking of making a career change, you are not alone. Consider the state of the current employment landscape: 

Mass layoffs are rampant.

Not knowing what to do next. Herminia’s research consistently finds that determining next steps is the top barrier people encounter when they consider making a career change. 

Limiting mindsets. Many people find the prospect of a career change so overwhelming that they become paralyzed — and end up doing nothing at all. The barrier, as one person put it, is a “lack of courage, fear I will not make enough money, fear I will not reach the top of the career ladder and feel I am a loser.” 

Inadequate networks. In general, people find it difficult to network for a job. It’s even harder when they feel that they don’t have a clear story, as is the case when they don’t know what they want to do next. 

Lacking the right skills. Aspiring career changers know the importance of identifying their transferable skills. But lacking specific skills — in, say, business analysis — can be a real barrier. Some professionals are worried their knowledge base might be seen as obsolete. One person, for example, mentioned feeling worried about both lacking requisite skills and being perceived as overqualified for a role they were seeking.

These worries are not irrational.

Employees today need to demonstrate a sophisticated understanding of how new technologies are impacting the industries, organizations, and jobs they want to enter, and of the opportunities that these technologies present to transform a business.
