What motives drive managers to change their organisation?

Managers are starting to change their jobs more often than they used to, and are adopting the tradition of their non-managerial counterparts, who are changing companies even more frequently. This trend is linked to a willingness to try other areas, other industries. Of course, we do see turnover in the same industries, but it is often in specific areas that require very specific knowledge, a certain level of craftsmanship – for example, the financial sector, law firms, specific consultancy companies. This is because it is not easy for these people to get into another industry, it is difficult for them to change jobs. Another reason why there is more turnover of managers is the economic situation, the security of the labour market, which allows for more courageous experimentation, for choosing other, untried areas.
