BROUGHT TO YOU BY
The women of Connect: Professional Women’s Network share
how they decide when it’s time to leave a job.
Exit Strategies at Work
CONNECT: PROFESSIONAL WOMEN’S NETWORK 2
When the job no longer aligns with your values, stimulates higher
learning, curiosity and excitement it's time to take a closer look.
Sometimes a few simple changes do the trick; other times may call for
a total re-evaluation. Marla Tabaka, Business Coach
CONNECT: PROFESSIONAL WOMEN’S NETWORK
Can go in two different directions for me - 1) I begin to dread getting up in
the morning (and I rarely do), or 2) I discover such a passion or desire in
something, that I immediately seek ways to either transfer myself to
pursue that passion. Bernadette Boas, CEO Ball of Fire Consulting
CONNECT: PROFESSIONAL WOMEN’S NETWORK 4
Am I giving my all? Do I love what I do? Am I adding value? I also assess
how the organization is treating me as well as my manager. Oftentimes, I
may love what I do, but may not be getting the support of the organization
or individual who hired me. Amanda Beto, Marketing Director

I have to be happy in my job 70% of the time. 30% of the time it's OK to
not have the salary you want, the title you want or be in the location you
want. But once your overall happiness about the job goes down, that's
when I start looking for another one. Surya Santhi, Digital Strategist
CONNECT: PROFESSIONAL WOMEN’S NETWORK 6
When you are bored more often than not. When you are not using
the creativity you are capable of. When you can afford it. It's
always good to blend practical decision making with job
satisfaction. Barbara Wetzler, Consultant
CONNECT: PROFESSIONAL WOMEN’S NETWORK 7
When you lose your passion for the business, it's time to
regenerate, recalculate or resign. Joann Wagoner,
Managing Director
CONNECT: PROFESSIONAL WOMEN’S NETWORK 8
When I have gained sufficient knowledge to do all that my position
requires and it no longer presents a challenge, then it's time to move on. If
that's not possible where I am, then it means looking outside of the firm.
Diane Durr Hicks, Community Development Supervisor
CONNECT: PROFESSIONAL WOMEN’S NETWORK 9
For me, it is three equal parts of loving what I do, being
challenged by what I do and being respected for what I do. If any
of the three are out of balance, I get restless. Donna
Johnson, Business Intelligence Developer
