Productive Change

I am going through sixth major change in career this week. The change in job brings in uneasy situation for the employee as well as the employer. The notice period is the most non productive period of the career. Change in career has mostly being associated with changing loyalty, lust for money, giving up due to pressure situation and so many non positive traits. But the experience for the employee is different. He gets an opportunity to UNLEARN, NETWORK WITH NEW PROFESSIONALS, Experiment with new ( Ideas which were never tried in the previous job) and old ideas (Ideas which have worked) etc.
Although I have been suggested many a times to settle down with a job (organization), I disagree (as of now) with the term settlement. Settlement , I feel is accepting to what ever is dished out to you. Settlement could only be associated with movement toward fullest utilization of ones potential and exploring the intellectual or work capability beyond the individual LIMITS.
I experienced CHANGE as Productive phenomenon for the employee as well as the employer. Hence Change must be accepted more positively. In fact organizations must formally allow inter change of professionals among themselves to become more productive.
