When Is The Best Time To Leave Your Job ...

Research 

It is not always a good time to quit one's job especially if you just started it or have spent a very long time doing it, leaving a job at a wrong time may cost you a lot, but can one know when it's the right time to quit.

According to a research done by ADP, "Employees who change jobs with less than three years under their belt typically only see a 2.7% pay bump, with only a couple of years experience, workers skills aren't fully developed, making them less marketable than someone in the sweet spot of 3-5 years, says Yildirmaz, director of ADP. But after five years, workers tend to be more tied to their company as they are now climbing up the leadership ranks. 
That's why,once they cross the five-year threshold their pay rises slightly less than 6% and after 10 years, job switchers only see an increase of 2.2%"

Apart from the findings in this research other factors one must take note of before calling it quits at his/her current job is the trend in unemployment rate, the demand level of demand for his or her skills. It's really important that you are well advised before you quit. 

"As the saying goes look before you quit...sorry leap"

CREATING ECONOMIC POWERHOUSES IN AFRICA

Guest Post   By Sir John Akhile  jakhile@unleashafricantrade.com Some people prefer the term “Lion” to describe economic renaissance of African countries. I will defer to the late Deng Xiaoping’s quote that “ it doesn’t matter whether the cat is black or white as long as it catches mice .” Based on the reality on the ground in all the countries of the continent, it is appropriate to state that the “cat is not catching mice”. What is also known is that the Asian Tigers have successfully traversed the road from poverty to prosperity, an accomplishment that has eluded African countries for decades. It is apropos to quote the late founder of modern South Korea; Park Chung Hee’s rational for South Korea choosing export-oriented industrialization to begin this discussion.

Before We All Become Entrepreneurs

Source: Africabeta "Everybody loves a rags to riches entrepreneur; the unexpected genius from the remote village that built a start-up worth millions.  Such stories, valid as they sometimes may be, fuel the myth of the entrepreneur, blurring the realities more closely associated with running your own business. What other myths lie on the path to start-up glory?"
