How to Pivot Your Career by Building a Personal Board of Directors

Episode 37 of The Career Pivot Podcast explores the concept of a personal board of directors—a small group of trusted advisors who guide your career moves. Lucas and Luna break down how to recruit mentors from different industries, set meeting cadences, and avoid common pitfalls like groupthink or over-reliance on one person. They share a concrete example from Sarah, a marketing manager who pivoted to product management using advice from her board of five advisors, and discuss how to structure asks, handle conflicting advice, and evolve your board as your career changes. Plus, a listener question on whether you should pay your board members. If you've ever felt stuck in a career transition or wished for a sounding board beyond your boss, this episode offers a practical framework for building your own advisory group. #PersonalBoardOfDirectors #CareerPivot #Mentorship #CareerAdvice #ProfessionalDevelopment #Networking #CareerChange #MidCareer #CareerStrategy #Mentors #BoardOfAdvisors #JobTransition #CareerGrowth #Leadership #PeerMentors #Careers #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
