Some career consultants advise changing jobs every two years. But that doesn’t necessarily mean changing companies. You might find your next job in the company you work for now. A move within your company can provide:

A greater salary increase than you'd normally get with just a raise.
A move into management. Often your first leadership position is an internal promotion.
A chance to change careers. Your company is likely to accept the risk, since they know you already.

Notice that proven value is your catalyst for getting that new internal job. Here’s how to use the Meaningful Competence strategy to do that.

THE OUTPUT

You'll have what you need to market yourself and obtain that next job. While others apply and hope, you can show the real value you have brought to your current job, and demonstrate how you'll quickly bring value to the new job. And then you'll do it. You might even obtain a position on that hallowed "high-profile employee" list.

Why are these called Career-Life Situations?

If you're happy in a job, it shows in all other parts of your life. So if you're not satisfied with your job, it's unlikely you'll be satisfied with your life.
