Abstract

Career transformation and transition is a significant change in an individual’s career path. This can involve a lateral adjustment where one moves into a different career role in the same industry or to an industry transition where one moves to a new career. Individuals make career transformations for a variety of reasons, such as personal growth and development, or a desire for new challenges or opportunities. It is important to carefully consider the reasons for making a career change and to thoroughly research the support that is required to make a successful transition. Career transformations and transitions can be challenging, but they can also offer opportunities for personal satisfaction and professional growth.
