Taking the plunge
I have been thinking of writing a book focused on senior management careers for some time but the economics of spending 6 months writing a book just don’t add up, literally!!
So I have decided to share some of the knowledge that I have gained as a senior management executive search professional and more recently as a career coach, through the blogging world. My intention is to write a short piece two or three times a month and hopefully my viewers will find my blogs useful when making their all important career decisions
It is my view that the decisions one takes for each career move, whether internal or external, are as important, if not more, as the performance one demonstrates between each career move. My conversations with hundreds of senior management professionals over the last 7 years have led me to the conclusion that many professionals are not proactive about their career moves and often dont take a well-considered decision, especially when the push factors to look for a new role are high. Therefore, they leave their fates to luck or good fortune and the consequences of just one wrong move can be quite dire, because it could take years to make amends and get one’s career back onto the fast-track
So am hoping that through these blogs I can provide some useful perspectives to my viewers. Feel free to comment or subscribe to these blogs if you find them useful
Great Idea Luis! But I still think your book would do well!
Great idea Luis…. Look forward to some interesting reading and I hope inspiration too!
Luis…Very good idea. I do agree with your hypothesis…However the change instinct comes when the assignment gets boring/routine or the feeling of “underpaid” keeps daunting the individual.In the past this used to take 4-5 years to get to such feeling levels…in the current times it is 2-3 years and hence the changes are frequent. In my experience the organisation which provides such changes every two years is able to retain the professionals. All the best t your book…. Sethu +91-98400-09991
Good idea Luis.
The book is even a better idea. Re- evaluate the economics.

Thanks for the blog post, is there any way I can get an update sent in an email every time you write a new article?
Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable and all. However think about if you added some great pictures or video clips to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this website could undeniably be one of the greatest in its field. Amazing blog!
