How to Map Your Career Options with a Personal Board of Advisors
from Mid-Career Moves with Fexingo: 30s and 40s Career Strategy, Stagnation, and Reinvention · host Fexingo
Feeling stuck in your mid-career? In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore a powerful strategy to break through career stagnation: building a personal board of advisors. Instead of relying on a single mentor, this approach curates a small group of trusted peers, former managers, and industry outsiders to provide diverse perspectives and honest feedback. They walk through how to identify potential members, how to ask for their time without being awkward, and how to structure a quarterly check-in that actually yields actionable advice. Lucas shares a real example of a product manager who used this method to pivot from enterprise software to climate tech in under a year. If you've felt your career plateauing and aren't sure which move to make next, this episode gives you a concrete framework to map your options with input from people who already know your strengths. #Careers #MidCareer #PersonalBoardOfAdvisors #Mentorship #CareerStrategy #CareerStagnation #Reinvention #ProfessionalGrowth #Networking #CareerAdvice #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CareerPivot #Leadership #PeerAdvisory #CareerDevelopment #30sAnd40s Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
