Moving On Up

I recently read an article by Bruce L. Katcher from Accounting Web titled “Don’t Feel Trapped in Your Job.”. Katcher refers to a survey that shows “only 54 percent of employees feel they have a good future with their current organization.” If 46 percent of employees aren’t enthusiastic about their future in their current office, why do they stay? The list of reasons that people offer are no surprise. Including fear of change and concerns over health benefits and family and worries, these reasons have been used for centuries.

However, these concerns shouldn’t be keeping you at a job that you’re not entirely satisfied with. One of the ways that Katcher suggests employees move forward is by redefining their goals and clarifying their objectives. He also recommends that employees see a career counselor so that they’re not just “spinning their wheels.” That’s where we come in. Morgan Ross Group is more than a recruitment firm. We’ll help you realize where you want to be and what your goals are, then come up with a plan that will get you there.

There is no reason to stay at a job that won’t offer you a promising future. Take some time to figure out your goals and then make the change. As Katcher says, “A change of venue can have a major positive effect on your performance.” Take charge of your career, moving out might also mean moving up.
