Navigating Career Transition

How to move beyond technical expertise and lead across functions.

Introduction

Today, when we search online for career advice, we tend to encounter one of two types of guidance. Some articles present generic checklists, such as update your resume, add a new skill, take another training course, and expand your network. Others share personal career stories that, while sometimes inspiring, do not always map onto our own realities. Both approaches offer some value, but too often they leave out what matters most: the context and the day-to-day decisions that actually make a career move successful.
