In this episode, we speak to Christopher Connolly, author of Transition Expertise and Identity about navigating transitions.

Christopher highlights the importance of cognitive flexibility, personal and contextual intelligence, and motivation in successful transitions. He differentiates between intrinsic and extrinsic motivations, noting that intrinsic motivators like autonomy, competency, and relatedness are crucial for career advancement. He emphasises the role of self-reflection and understanding one’s identity in navigating transitions. Christopher also introduces the concept of “craxial moments” for sudden changes and the necessity of contextual intelligence to adapt to new environments.
