Industries in transition affect career management

A bank in Switzerland loses $2 billion on their loan investment. Oil reaches $160 a barrel. Apple releases the iPhone.

Where is your company on these events? Which industries are in a transition or hurt by world events?

Most importantly, if you are planning on keeping or leaving your position, which industries are the right ones for right now? Which industries should you avoid?

Cube Rules Industries in Transition

Besides the focused content on career management, this Cube Rules Member monthly report tells you the industries in transition and how it can affect your position.

Once an industry makes it to the report, it will most likely be there for some time. Industries don’t usually turn for the better or worse that fast. But there are exceptions. Whether it is the rising fuel costs killing the airlines — and companies like Boeing that supply them — or the cell phone industry turned upside down by the iPhone, we’ll analyze what is happening and give the Cubical Warrior viewpoint.

Being a Cube Rules Member helps navigate the shoals of transitional industries.
