Timothy Here Again,

Most of us spend more than half of our waking hours working or doing work-related activities. That’s a lot of time! However, your time is your most valuable resource – and if you’re unhappy at work, where you spend at least 50% of your daily life, then it will be very difficult to find fulfilment in your life.

Unfortunately, most of us don’t know how to create careers that bring us wealth or happiness – let alone both.

This is because the way we have been taught to think about careers through the lens of “The Ladder Model (TLM),” where you start on one rung, on one track, and keep climbing until retirement. This model has long passed its expiration date.

There is a much more effective way to construct a career as disruptions of all kinds increase the level of uncertainty most of us face.

This new model is the Kinetic Career. With the Kinetic model, we shift our working worlds from a singularly focused track, based on a central skill set, to a composition of talents, creativity, skills, and values that center around a common theme or series of themes.

If you’re reluctant to give up the Ladder model, let me show you why you should:
1. The ladder is gone. There are no more one-track careers. Long gone are the days when we could expect to enter one company and climb a singular ladder to retirement with an SUV 35 years later. The average number of expected jobs in a lifetime has jumped from one to twelve to well over twenty, according to some research.

2. A “job” is no longer a job. The trend toward freelance work has been increasing immensely in the last decade and a half.

3. We are not happy at work. 85% globally are not happy with their work. These numbers have been reasonably consistent since the early 2000s. The ladder model is leading most people with one destination: unfulfilled.

So, how do we build the Kinetic Career model? There are five simple steps, rooted in the framework of Mindset, Education, and Collaboration we will be looking at them in our next post.

Dedicated to your Vision and Success
