Career Transitions

职业转型

Scope

适用范围

Covers
  • Clarifying what “progress” means to you (beyond compensation) and using it as a decision rule
  • Mapping your current situation into pushes (frictions) and pulls (attractions)
  • Defining a motivating “genie goal” (what you’d do if success were guaranteed) and backcasting into near-term moves
  • Turning vague ideas into 2–4 concrete target archetypes (roles/companies/paths) with clear fit filters
  • Building an opportunity pipeline (network map + weekly outreach plan) and ready-to-send outreach scripts
  • Creating a realistic 4–12 week experiment plan to de-risk the transition
When to use
  • “I want to change careers / pivot roles but I’m not sure to what.”
  • “Help me evaluate two career paths and pick one.”
  • “I feel stuck; help me figure out what I actually want next and how to get there.”
  • “I want a structured plan for a career transition, including networking/outreach scripts.”
When NOT to use
  • You need clinical mental health support for burnout/anxiety/depression (seek professional support; this skill can complement, not replace it).
  • You need legal advice (employment law, immigration/visa, contracts) or financial/tax planning.
  • You only want a resume/LinkedIn rewrite with no decision/process work (use a resume-specific workflow instead).
  • You are in an urgent workplace investigation/HR escalation where legal/process guidance is required.
涵盖内容
  • 明确对你而言“进展”的定义(不限于薪酬),并将其作为决策准则
  • 将当前现状拆解为推力(困扰因素)和拉力(吸引因素)分析图
  • 设定一个有激励性的“理想目标”(假设成功有保障时你会选择的方向),并倒推制定近期行动方案
  • 将模糊的想法转化为2-4个具体的目标职业原型(岗位/公司/发展路径),并明确适配筛选条件
  • 搭建机会渠道(人脉图谱+每周沟通计划),并准备好可直接使用的沟通脚本
  • 制定切实可行的4-12周试验计划,降低转型风险
适用场景
  • “我想转行/转岗,但不确定该往哪个方向走。”
  • “帮我评估两个职业路径并做出选择。”
  • “我感觉陷入瓶颈,帮我明确下一步真正想要的是什么以及如何实现。”
  • “我需要一份结构化的职业转型计划,包含人脉拓展/沟通脚本。”
不适用场景
  • 你因 burnout(职业倦怠)、焦虑或抑郁需要临床心理健康支持(请寻求专业帮助;本工具仅可作为补充,无法替代专业支持)。
  • 你需要法律咨询(劳动法、移民/签证、合同相关)或财务/税务规划服务。
  • 你仅需要简历/LinkedIn资料优化,不需要决策或流程规划(请使用专门的简历优化流程)。
  • 你正处于紧急的职场调查/HR申诉流程中,需要法律或流程指导。

Inputs

输入信息

Minimum required
  • Your current role/situation (title, scope, industry) and what’s prompting change
  • Your constraints (location/remote, time, money/runway, family, visa, schedule)
  • Your timeline (when you need a decision; when you could start something new)
  • What you’re optimizing for (learning, autonomy, mission, stability, leadership, compensation, flexibility)
  • 2–6 candidate directions you’re considering (even if vague) OR what you explicitly want to avoid
  • Your current “assets” (skills, strengths, portfolio/work examples, network access)
Missing-info strategy
  • Ask 3–5 questions at a time from references/INTAKE.md.
  • If the user is unsure of targets, propose 2–3 plausible archetypes and label assumptions for the user to correct.
  • If numbers are missing (runway/comp), proceed with ranges and decision thresholds.
  • Never request confidential employer information; use redacted details.
必填信息
  • 你的当前岗位/现状(职位名称、工作范围、所在行业)以及推动你做出改变的原因
  • 你的限制条件(工作地点/远程办公、时间、资金储备、家庭、签证、日程安排)
  • 你的时间规划(需要做出决策的时间;可以开始新工作的时间)
  • 你优先考虑的因素(学习成长、自主性、使命感、稳定性、领导力、薪酬、灵活性)
  • 你正在考虑的2-6个候选方向(即使模糊也可),或者你明确想要避开的方向
  • 你当前的“优势资源”(技能、强项、作品集/工作案例、人脉资源)
信息缺失处理策略
  • references/INTAKE.md中每次选取3-5个问题询问用户。
  • 如果用户不确定目标方向,提出2-3个合理的职业原型,并标注假设内容供用户修正。
  • 如果缺失数值信息(如资金储备/薪酬),使用范围值和决策阈值推进。
  • 绝不要求用户提供雇主机密信息;使用脱敏后的细节。

1) Intake + current state snapshot

1) 信息收集+现状快照

  • Inputs: user context; references/INTAKE.md.
  • Actions: Capture the current role, what’s driving the change, constraints, and decision timeline. Identify what must remain true (e.g., location, comp floor, hours, mission).
  • Outputs: Current State + Constraints Snapshot + assumptions/unknowns list.
  • Checks: Constraints are explicit; timeline has dates; unknowns are listed.
  • 输入: 用户背景信息; references/INTAKE.md.
  • 行动: 记录当前岗位、推动改变的原因、限制条件和决策时间线。明确必须保留的条件(如工作地点、最低薪酬、工作时长、使命方向)。

  • 检查项: 限制条件明确;时间线包含具体日期;已列出未知信息

2) Define progress metric + push/pull map

2) 定义进度衡量指标+推拉分析图

  • Inputs: frustrations and attractions; desired learning; values.
  • Actions: Translate “I want a change” into: (a) a progress metric (what you want more/less of), (b) a push/pull map, and (c) what you refuse to repeat.
  • Outputs: Progress Metric + Push/Pull Map.
  • Checks: Progress metric is measurable/observable; pushes and pulls are not contradictory.
  • 输入: 困扰与吸引因素;期望的学习方向;个人价值观
  • 行动: 将“我想要改变”转化为:(a) 一个进度衡量指标(你希望增加/减少的内容),(b) 一份推拉分析图,以及(c) 你绝不想重复的经历

  • Checks: Backcast produces concrete near-term moves (not just vision).
  • 输入: 个人抱负;风险承受能力;限制条件

  • 必须包含:风险待解决问题下一步行动

Examples

示例

Example 1 (pivot with constraints): “I’m a PM considering a move into product marketing or developer relations. I have 10 hours/week and need to stay remote. Use
career-transitions
to create a Career Transition Pack with an option scorecard and a 6-week experiment plan.”
Expected: archetypes + scorecard + outreach/scripts + experiment plan.
Example 2 (stay vs go): “I’m feeling stuck at my current company. I’m not sure whether to ask for a 3-month sabbatical, transfer internally, or leave. Use
career-transitions
to help me decide and draft a sabbatical/bridge proposal.”
Expected: push/pull + progress metric + decision rule + sabbatical proposal + next steps.
Boundary example: “Tell me whether I should quit tomorrow and move countries on a visa without any plan.”
Response: out of scope for legal/immigration advice; recommend professional support and a safer decision process; offer to help build a plan once constraints are clarified.
示例1(带限制条件的转岗): “我是一名PM,正在考虑转向产品营销或开发者关系岗位。我每周能投入10小时,且必须远程办公。请使用
career-transitions
工具生成包含选项评分卡和6周试验计划的职业转型工具包。”
预期产出:职业原型+评分卡+沟通脚本+试验计划。
示例2(留任 vs 离职): “我在当前公司感到陷入瓶颈。我不确定是申请3个月的休假、内部转岗还是离职。请使用
career-transitions
工具帮我做决策,并起草休假/过渡方案。”
预期产出:推拉分析+进度衡量指标+决策准则+休假方案+下一步行动。
边界示例: “告诉我我是否应该明天辞职,然后无计划地持签证移居国外。”
回复:此需求涉及法律/移民咨询,超出本工具范围;建议寻求专业支持并采用更稳妥的决策流程;待限制条件明确后,可协助制定规划。
