Uninterrupted
Before You Quit Your Job, Listen To This | Aliza Knox
Season 5, Ep. 20
•
We’re in the midst of what’s been called The Great Resignation, a time when an unprecedented number of people are leaving jobs they’ve unhappily put up with for years to pursue careers they’ve always wanted. Living through a pandemic has that kind of effect.
But what if you didn’t have to quit your job to turn your work life around?
Today’s guest suggests exactly that. And she has a wealth of experience to back up her advice. Aliza Knox has headed up sales for the APAC regions of Google, Twitter and Cloudfare. In 2020, she was named APAC IT Woman of The Year and this year, released a book in which she shares what she’s learnt over the past 40 years, called Don’t Quit Your Day Job.
In this episode she talks about how leaving a job prematurely won’t fix your problems and can lead to you facing the same issues once again in a new role. She explains how job crafting in your current role can bring major gains plus other mindset shifts that helped her build a successful career.
