Are you ready to make a change?

Have you been wondering if you should change jobs or even your career? Maybe it’s been niggling at you for a while. Sunday nights are filled with dread at the thought of work again on Monday. Or maybe after working hard for years you don’t feel valued by your employer anymore. Have you felt that way for a while but for some reason, haven’t been able to make any real change? What’s stopping you making progress or keeping you in the same place?

After twenty years working with people looking to change their careers, we’ve identified the four factors that indicate whether you’re ready to make a change. Take our Change Ready Index survey and find out whether you’re ready to take the next step towards a brighter future.
