How Will People Re-engage Their Careers in 2022 and Beyond

Abstract

Throughout 2022 and into 2023 career opportunities will abound. As the Great Resignation continues, employees are actively pursuing new careers that better fit their lifestyle and preferred career choices. While employers are seeking qualified and committed employees, career opportunities appear to be endless. Matching employees with the places of work, also, seems to be a challenge for employers and employees at the moment. The guidance of an experienced career coach may be a good step in facilitating a reflection on one’s assessment of skills and capabilities, along with a realistic approach to establishing a long-term career trajectory. It may also allow employees, who engage an experienced career coach, to emerge from the coaching experience better prepared with more satisfying career options moving forward. Companies on the other hand can also benefit from the commitment and morale boost in their workforce if they are open to thechange of approach towards employees. It may be a good way to prevent the knowledge and tacit capability from walking out the door. In this paper, we offer recent observations and suggestions for how to navigate this still developing scenario. And, hopefully, emerge successfully with desired career paths and new opportunities, where you can thrive and further develop your skills and goals.
