Armbands or rubber ring?
I was reflecting on what stops people from jumping ship, i.e. changing career. Here are the 12 most common ones from working with many different people:
1) Lack of confidence/self-belief
2) Not aware of what skills and qualities they possess
3) Don’t understand how social media is useful
4) Perceived insecurity of making a change
5) Lack a network
6) Don’t know where/how to find out about different careers
7) Dislike networking
Other people’s fears e.g. loss of status
9) Reluctance to ask for help
10) Worry about being rejected
11) Dislike of change
12) Fear
What would you add? What would you recommend to help people tackle them?
