We all know the horror stories caused by downsizing, mergers, and the lack of security in today's jobs. Finally, instead of fearing job loss and change, there's a new book that teaches how to job jump in order to find jobs you truly love. "Job jumpers don't jump just for the sake of jumping -- their main goal is to find work that maximizes their professional potential. Job jumpers, with broader industry perspectives, numerous contacts, confidence in their convictions, and a shorter time frame in which to make a difference, transform companies faster than 'loyal' employees do," says /Julia Hartman, a job jumper and author of "Strategic Job Jumping: 50 Very Smart Tactics for Building Your Career. Hartman believes change is the key to growth -- both professional and personal. "If you haven't managed change personally, you're unlikely to be capable of doing it for an employer. Loyal employees in leadership positions sometimes take the no-risk (and no-reward) business strategy, trying to protect their jobs. That's not true for a job jumper." In her book, Hartman explains that those employees that have jumped within an industry are well qualified to predict the future of the industry and understand how a company can change and prosper. Because job jumpers have above-average training and an industry perspective, they know how to change a company by embracing winning strategies and by providing an effective short-term outlook in which to make a difference -- all of which are extremely beneficial. "If your company is ready for positive change, then hire a job jumper, an industry specialist with a 360 degree view. Job jumpers know how to transform themselves, and consequently, helptransform a company to grow, evolve, and prosper. Jumpers can transform their companies faster than long-term, 'loyal' employees. And they are able to take intelligent risks, because they have the objective choice to risk their jobs on changing the status quo," says Hartman.
