29 From Leadership to A Support Position: What You Need to Know

Today’s current job market climate has proven that people are no longer willing to put up with job abuse. The days of the employees sticking around no matter how they were being treated are long gone.

I’m sure you have heard of the Great Exodus or the Great Resignation by now, and it does not appear to be slowing down.

Maybe you are like one of the thousands of executives who are tired of always being ‘on’ and are considering stepping down from your position of great responsibility. Perhaps you’re looking to take on a support position, leaving you more time and more mental capacity to do something more personally satisfying to you.

I get it, but there are several things you should consider before stepping down.

You must be ready for this mental shift. Not taking the time to prepare will give you a different level of stress, and have you returning to the job titles that you so desperately wanted to get away from in the first place.

Join me inside the episode as I walk you through a few examples, and the importance of working your way through them. Be sure to download the show notes to access all of the tips mentioned in this episode. You can find the show notes on my website under the podcast tab.
