After reading Next Move, Best Move: Transitioning Into a Career You’ll Love by Kimberly B. Cummings, Skye and Amanda are discussing their own professional development. In the book, Cummings uses her years of experience as a former career development advisor to guide readers toward utilizing their highest potential, skills and passion to strategically ensure success in their careers. 

With such different experiences, both ladies open up about the journeys of their career up until now and how this book is helping them prepare for the future. Skye reflects on how much she has been pouring into her growth in the workplace lately and what needs to change. Amanda shares what contributed to the success of her recent career transition and how she’s now thinking about what true leadership looks like.
