Is It Better to Switch Jobs or Stay at the Same Company?

Tips for Work and Life with Andrew LaCivita

Got asked a great question a few weeks back at Live Office Hours.

The person asked if he should stay at his company or transition every 3-4 years.

He has aspirations of being a CEO at some point in the future and was wondering whether the variety or longevity would better position him.

Have you ever wondered this?

You might be thinking, well, Andy, I just need a job. This is moot at the moment.

Or, hey, Andy, you’re a mind-reader!

Well, what do I often say?

“Your trajectory matters much more than where you are at any moment in time […] any moment in time is just that. It’s over in an instant.”

You will eventually be faced with a scenario like this.

And, even if it’s just a matter of changing jobs, you’ll benefit from the philosophy, whys, wherefores, whats, and how-to-thinks in today’s video clip.

Take in at your leisure so you can stay on that not-so-leisurely, skyrocket-like trajectory!
