Question

Weigh the pros and cons of maintaining career flexibility.

Answer 1

Student answers will vary. Possible Answer: If you maintain career flexibility, you will never be caught on the outside of any changes in the business world and you’ll be able to quickly transition into a new job whenever you need to. A con of maintaining career flexibility is that you will have a tough time specializing in one area. Becoming an expert in something requires some stability and a willingness to be singleminded in the pursuit of your goals.
