  • What fills me and what gives me pleasure?

What is the difference between reorientation, reconversion and professional transition?

  • Professional reorientation:

    • "Give a new direction to his career"

    • Often generated either by an external imperative (unemployment, dismissal, closure, business sector at half mast, etc.), or by an internal imperative (dream, self-realization, malaise, fed up, burn-out, disability, …), or both.

 

  • Professional reconversion:

    • A change of activity/career path

    • Consists of mourning the old world, coming back to yourself to immerse yourself in it, find other motivation and build your project.

    • Causes transformations of a profound nature which in turn lead to a radical modification of the environment.

  • Professional transition:

    • All the reorientations and professional reconversions in the life of a person
