Stuck in a Rut? May 20th, 2016 by Bill Boyajian |
Every career and every job has its ups and downs. But if you’re really tired and unhappy with your career direction or your work, here’s something to consider: 1. Jot down a few things you really enjoy doing. For me, it’s writing, speaking, and coaching. For you, it might be drawing, creating, or working with your hands. 2. Now jot down a few things that you’re really good at. And don’t be shy. 3. Examine the two lists and see if there is overlap in what you like to do and what you’re really good at doing. 4. Then ask yourself if you can earn a living doing what you love to do and also what you’re good at doing. If the answer is yes, you may well have found a new career direction or work preference. Even if you’re not in a rut, this is a good exercise to do every few years.

“I needed help orchestrating a succession plan for our business. I had heard that Bill Boyajian specialized in assisting owners to transition their business to the next generation. He knows how to bridge the generation gap and deliver what each needs to hear. I would recommend Bill to any business owner who needs advice on succession planning from a trusted outside professional.”

"Our family needed some guidance on business transition and succession planning. We asked Bill Boyajian to help us because we knew we could trust him to tell us what we needed to hear. Bill became a valuable resource for our company and our entire family. He has the ability to meet each of us where we’re at and it has served us very well."

“We needed a plan to transition our business to a non-family member and we asked Bill Boyajian to help us. His experience in the area has really paid off, but we didn’t expect the added value of putting us together with a financial planner who helped organize our retirement needs. We now have the fundamentals to transition our business successfully, and we have Bill to thank for it.”
