In December, we emailed the Local Eye Site community referencing the Right Management study (see here) that reports that 84% of surveyed employees intend to actively seek a new position in 2012. According to the article, “Workers continue to feel trapped in their jobs and want to find new employment elsewhere, according to a new poll of more than 1,000 employees in North America by Right Management, the talent and career management expert within ManpowerGroup.”
In follow up to that, I recently received an email from Linked-In that graphically depicted the number of my “connected” associates that have in fact changed jobs in the last 12 months….134 of them! Now, I’m connected to nearly 600 professionals on Linked-In, but still, that’s about 25% of my connections have recently changed jobs, and that doesn’t include those that did so and didn’t bother to update their profile. Hmmm…according to Linked-In, “2011 was a year of change.” What will 2012 be like?
