ā€œItā€™s not you itā€™s meā€

Here is a generic storyline:

You can start with thanking the for all the guidance and support they have provided you. Then talk about how the learning on this team for you personally is plateauing or not exciting anymore. Then go on to mention that you think of this time in your life to learn as much as possible so interviewing for these other teams where I think I have a next S curve of learning/personal growth. Who knows a few years down the line I switch back to your team and bring that wealth of experience and maybe push the needle on this current project

Donā€™t until you need to? I was up for a position and the hiring manager told me she would reach out to my manager and gave me the opportunity to tell him before she contacted him. Itā€™s better to come from you but you donā€™t want them to know unless they need to

Otherwise be transparent and itā€™s itā€™s a good growth opportunity. I wouldnā€™t say ā€œI need a changeā€ or anything like that in case you donā€™t get it
