Season 3
Episode 1: The Future of Career Progression
Welcome to a new year and a new season of The Spin. In this episode, Mark and Kristen explore career progression and specifically Squiggly Careers.
As we come through the pandemic, now is a great time to reflect on whether you are getting what you want from your career and, if possible, to take control. In Season 2 of Episode 5, we talked about how to futureproof your career and this included reference to Squiggly Careers. A squiggly career represents the future of the career ladder where we can play to our strengths and explore limitless future possibilities.
The topic of careers appears to be top of mind for people. Research from global recruitment firm Adecco identified that 42% don’t feel confident they have the skills required for the future and only 30% feel their managers are equipped to help putting lots of responsibility on individuals to manage their own careers.
