Lateral Moves - Are they Worth It? AND When do they make sense?

“Climbing the corporate ladder” kind of makes it sound like there’s only one way to get to the top. But many of us end up exploring a variety of paths in our careers. And today, on Career Strategies for Women that Work, we explore the benefits of lateral moves. 

Lateral Moves are essentially career changes that don’t typically involve a significant change in salary, title, or level. They may not seem very beneficial at first, but a lateral move doesn't mean you aren't gaining new experiences or learning new skills.
