It's not unusual for perceptible career growth to stall during an
economic slowdown or a recession -- as we're all currently struggling through
right now. While your employer may no longer be able to offer you the same
variety of positions or opportunities to advance, take some comfort in
having a job and in remaining gainfully employed. If you're in search of
career challenges and growth, you can provide them for yourself for a while
by tackling new subject matter, pursuing a certification, returning to
school, or posing yourself some kind of other personal challenge that will
provide you with continued opportunities to learn and grow on the job.
Sooner or later, the economy will pick back up and new opportunities will
then become more prevalent. By preparing now for such opportunities to come,
you will be even better positioned to take advantage of them when they
arrive.
Good luck in your career development planning and execution.
