Wow. What a time to be a leader. New headlines every day. High-level leaders being asked to move on. And those who remain?

The past few weeks have reinforced something powerful: No matter how much you’ve achieved. No matter how high up the chain you are. No matter how externally successful you’ve been.

You’re preparing for a career transition, and it feels like everything is on the line. Whether it’s… a new company role within the company something entirely different …it’s about more than answering questions.
