I'm considering switching teams internally to get more experience with a specific product line. Problem is, I really like my current team. Am I crazy to give up a good thing for a potential career boost?

I have had some of the best teams and some of the worst, but it is hard to pass up a good opportunity no matter what. Team and people you work with can be variable, you never know when people will come and go. Totally understand not wanting to give up being around good people though.

If likeness is what motivates you then stay where you are!

Hello, I’m an LMSW in Michigan. I have 15 years of experience in the field as a clinician, supervisor, and an administrator. I am feeling burnt out and unsure of my future.

I’ve flirted with private practice work in the past, but my spouse has been worried about not having affordable healthcare and benefits that each system provides. Is it worth the jump? Am I overthinking things?

Hi everyone! In your experience, what is the one tool / must-have / methodology any of your companies use to bring about a cohesive and comprehensive go-to-market strategy in the launch of new products and services? As a company scales, coordinating cross-functionally and across time zones is becoming increasingly challenging so we have identified that we need frameworks or tools to help us go-to-market in a less clumsy, more coordinated fashion. Would love to get your ideas on this.
