Everybody leaves sometime. The timing and circumstances vary of course, but a job is finite reality. Whether it's an out and out career change, a move along your career trajectory or into retirement, you will likely find yourself resigning somewhere, sometime. A skillful resignation will demonstrate your professionalism as well as help you transition to your next position. The Resigning Checklist provides an overview of what to keep in mind during the resignation process. Sure we've seen those lottery commercials in which we make mocking faces and gestures at the boss before walking out the door to collect our winnings. But if you don't plan to win the lottery anytime soon, and even if you do, it's always best to leave on a positive note. Don't threaten to leave, expecting your employer to beg you to stay. If you want to stay at your company, have a "career management" discussion rather than a resignation one. When you resign, you may or may not be presented with a counter offer, but know in advance how you'll handle this situation. Prepare what you're going to say to your boss, and keep it short and to the point. Most importantly, keep it positive. It doesn't matter why you're leaving or where you're going, once you've made the decision to resign, do it, and do it with class. Career transition can stir many emotions in all stakeholders, so the more effectively you manage it, the better off everyone involved will be. In this step, we take you through 5 actions and provide you with a number of resources to help you resign and move on.
