Creative Career Coach Pamela Kleibrink Thompson shares how though our industry is suffering through tumultuous, post pandemic times… if you’re out of work, use the time to recharge, reconnect, refocus… even transform.
Use your time wisely – don’t delay trying something you’ve wanted to do because the opportunity may soon be gone.
Everyone faces rejection, which is part of the career journey; it’s what you do after getting turned down that makes the difference.
Whatever job you have, act with enthusiasm, commitment, and passion – that includes volunteering with industry organizations like ASIFA, Women in Animation, and ACM SIGGRAPH.
Commit to your career in 2024 – make it a priority to continue taking the time to learn, improve, and develop your skills.
The end of the year is a great time to make decisions - decide to make a great life and career for yourself in 2024 and beyond.
Fall is a time for change – which can be difficult, but sometimes necessary to improve your career and your life.
