Why do people change the JOB?

There are several reasons that people change jobs, restlessly seeking the one they can both live with and work within. Based on my personal experience, these are the three significant ones:
We change jobs because:
  1. We didn’t select the right job for us in the first place.
  2. We don’t get along with our boss.
  3. We don’t feel a connection to those we work with.
The solutions for each of these are in our circle of influence. We have choices, and the only questions are
 a) if we will own up to how we ourselves can effect the change necessary to break out of the on-the-job rut we may find we are in, and
b) if we are willing to do the work it takes.

To get the Right Job
In moving on, the single best question you can ask in a new-job interview is, “What are the core values of this company?” If your personal values are a match your work alignment will be so, so much easier. If not, getting them aligned will be very difficult; you open the door to workplace overwhelm and dissatisfaction before you even pass probation.

To get the Right Boss
You have to manage up well, and whether or not you like hearing this, the reality is that managing up well can usually be reduced to making things easier on your boss by being a great employee. No boss will make life miserable for the person on staff that they count on most.

To get the Right Co-Workers
To paraphrase Gandi, be the change you wish to see in your world. Set the example you want your co-workers to follow, get involved in change discussions at work about systems and processes so your input is considered in better solutions, volunteer to lead projects, and be the poster child of great work ethic.
 and like attracts like.

Get selfish. In this case, selfish is not a negative word but a smart strategy. Bob Walsh wrote a great post here called, I want I do I get that will give you some inspiration with this.

Appraisals are approaching. Expecting hike?? Here comes the good news!!!


Top IT leaders responding to a salary survey earned less in 2010 than in 2009, but most expect a pay hike this year. The latest CIO Salary and Careers Survey by SearchCIO.com also found that a sizable majority of IT professionals report that the mood in their organizations is optimistic. However, less than one in three are planning to hire IT staff this year, and one in four have current hiring freezes.

Those findings highlight the mixed tone of the results from a poll of 920 IT professionals, which also found wide variances by industry and position in the pay and pay-raise performance of IT leaders.

Expectations for the coming year are, however, decidedly positive. When divided by their positions in their organizations, 72 percent of senior IT executives, 65 percent of midlevel IT directors and 61 percent of IT managers rated the mood at their organizations as neutral or optimistic.

Those good feelings have yet to translate into efforts to boost IT staff, however. Just 31 percent of the senior IT executives polled said they were actively hiring. Meanwhile, more than a quarter (27 percent) have frozen hiring and another 14 percent are shrinking by attrition. Organizations in health care, financial services and the government were the most likely to be hiring.

The reported 2010 earnings of respondents averaged about $10,000 less than those from a similar survey done at the end of 2009, SearchCIO.com said. Some IT leaders did much better, however. In particular, average salaries for senior IT executives -- vice presidents, executive vice presidents, senior vice presidents, CIOs, chief technology officers and chief information security officers -- in financial services rose 15.2 percent in 2010 to $152,437. Across all industries, the same group of leaders averaged 1.7 percent raises, and earned an average of $148,380
