The transition when changing mining jobs or mining career direction is often difficult and time consuming. During this transition period all the decisions are yours. You have control. This is your opportunity to reflect, to clarify and to chart a path for your life and your mining career.
Your self -awareness and self-understanding will make the quest easier:

It is inevitable in this day and age, and in this global economy. You will likely change jobs at some in your working career.
Are you prepared? Are you establishing yourself as an expert in your field while you are still employed? Are you building your own personal brand so that when that moment hits and you find yourself looking for work… you are already prepared?
“Brands are built on what people are saying about you, NOT what you’re saying about yourself” – Guy Kawasaki

So we’ve talked about the need for mining professionals to establish themselves as an expert in their field… to develop their personal brand. This is a step necessary for anyone who knows that a career transition will likely occur in the future. Rarely do people work for the same employer for an entire career - so why not be prepared for a transition? Establish your personal brand as an expert in your field now!
