Employee turnover in European and American companies is exploding<\/strong>, and the primary cause \u2014 according to a recent Randstad study<\/a> \u2014 is the search for better opportunities<\/a> in other companies or sectors.<\/p>\n

Among these employees, many executives no longer see themselves as they used to<\/strong> or, at the very minimum, are no longer sure they want to see themselves the same way five or ten years from now. For some of them, incremental change is no longer enough and they feel they need to shake up<\/strong> their lives and their careers.

Nobody has to stay the same way forever, and if you\u2019re not currently satisfied, neither do you.<\/p>\n
