Episode Question: If you are moving careers what approach do you adopt?

I have worked with many doctors supporting them to move into new roles and careers and in this episode, I’m introducing and sharing my 4 key pillars for a career move

To get the best role you need to have a strategy about the approach you are going to take along with clarity and focus on where you want to be and the 4 key pillars are the structure you need to make the move into a new role and be well positioned for the next opportunity
