Career complacency happens when you're not intentional about improving your skills or exploring your future possibilities. Even when you're happy in your role, it's important to actively manage your development. Without it, we risk losing relevance and being less resilient to change.  This week, Helen and Sarah share 5 ideas to action to overcome career complacency. They discuss how resistance goals can counteract a passive approach to your progression and the benefit of spending time with ambition allies.
