Description
In this episode we meet designer Emma Parnell and talk about working out when its time to move on. In
Many of our episodes focus on finding your idea job, but knowing when it time to go is equally, if not more important. Emma talks about the leading indicators that should nudge us to to consider finding our next role, even when we're working in a great role with people we love.
We also have a great student question from Carin Effendy, from the University of Bath, who's asks about evaluating the real values of a new employer.
One of Emma's favourite sources is Lou Downe's Good Services. Its a classic.
