How do you keep growing in your career without changing jobs?
Nathalie Kempf shares the one question she asks herself every year: is there still something she can learn in the next twelve months? She explains why a career that lasts decades doesn’t need to accelerate every single year. The conversation covers the pressure to always do more, how curiosity and raising your hand for new projects can open doors inside a large company, and an underrated way to grow: learning outside your job. Nathalie also talks about what to do when you feel stuck at work, and why it’s better to leave for an exciting opportunity than out of frustration.
