Need your advice
At the moment I am a part of a public sector consulting practice which is a subsidy of Accenture. I am bored out of my brains though, im doing change management and even tho the WLB is good I have always had my heart set on tech and the start up space. I’m going up for promotion end of year to an associate manager role so I don’t want to make any drastic changes. However at some point I want to move to North America and work in tech. What should my next steps be?
