How many book pieces (assuming they are good) should one aim for per year? I.e. what’s the gauge on how long to stay at an agency?

In theory, aim for one a year.

Agree! Approach (almost) every task as if it could be a book-worthy opportunity, but be satisfied with one winner each year. If you’re feeling frustrated, do a side project. If you can’t see good work being made anywhere in the agency, start looking.

2 - 4 book pieces per year is my goal.

1 - 2 is my reality.

Hi all! I’m in the search of a remote HRBP role, looking for a company that is willing to pick me up as a new HRBP. I’ve been in the role 4 months, but this company is a disaster. The culture is so bad, I had an employee say they can’t even go to the bathroom without permission. I’m really not wanting to go back to a generalist role. Prior to this job, I had another offer of HRBP but I didn’t like the interview. Been in the field 6+ years. Let me know if anyone has anything!
