Been working as a business transformation consultant for a year now- not enjoying it and definitely not motivated. Its showing in my lead feedbacks- should I stick it out or leave to find a job that is a better fit for me?

I would say think about what you enjoy and what you don't enjoy about the role.

This can help you find projects you are more suited to or choose a job which is more appropriate

As someone in a similar boat, thinking about what projects we may be more suited to or more interested in may help to shed some light on skills/interests/preferences, but it’s unlikely to make much of a difference. Especially as a staff/senior when we have less than zero influence on the kinds of projects that we’re staffed on and simply (unfortunately) go wherever we’re told

I think it's worth trying to jump around a bit within the role and see if there's another path worth following before you lrave

I have a business idea in the VR/AR space utilizing AI. However, I lack skill sets to evaluate viability or to create an MVP. Neither do I have a network to tap into.

My plan is taking classes to deepen my knowledge while joining and actively participating in communities to find collaborators.

Does this approach make sense or do you recommend other approaches? If it makes sense, do you have any recommendations for classes or communities?

Look forward to hearing your experiences and wisdom!
