RESUMEN
Disruptive innovations may serve both good and ill causes. This means that disruption can stimulate positive outcomes or tip people and organizations into chaos. The Langston Center for Innovation in Quality and Safety plays a moderating role by ensuring that innovations consider the upstream and downstream consequences potentiated by change initiatives characterized by a rapid implementation cycle. Drawing on change management and implementation science approaches, human factor variables are intentionally considered to generate acceptance of substantive disruptions.

An individual's career trajectory evolves with each job and role transition. Over time, job/role experiences trigger choices as to whether to stay in a particular job setting or role. Reflective questions guide the process of deciding whether and when it is time to transition. Considerations include role fit with lifestyle expectations, need for advanced knowledge and formal education, and readiness for upward or lateral movement. Using a framework modeled after the work of Bolman and Deal, this article presents 4 lenses to guide a careerist's readiness and need for change: human resource, structural, political, and symbolic factors. Each lens is introduced to reinforce a holistic approach to key triggers and considerations in career change. The summary culminates with how to foster a joy-filled career.
