What if building a successful career isn't about climbing a straight ladder, but learning how to make choices that work for your life? Aliza Knox has spent four decades building an international career across consulting, financial services, and technology, including leadership roles at Google and Twitter. In this conversation with Stephanie Mitton, she shares what she's learned about taking career risks, navigating international moves with a family, building relationships that support your growth, and deciding when it's time to leave a job.
This episode covers:
How to weigh the opportunities and trade-offs of an international career move.
Why adaptability and resilience matter when your career takes an unexpected turn.
What corporate boards do, what the commitment involves, and how to approach your first opportunity.
How to build a personal board of directors instead of relying on one mentor.
The habits that build trust and prepare you for greater responsibility.
How to use AI and emerging technology to increase your value at work.
When to stay, when to make changes, and how to approach leaving a job thoughtfully.
Aliza's advice is a reminder that you don't have to make every career change at once, and you don't need to have your whole future figured out before taking a step forward. Whether you're considering a new role, balancing ambition with family life, or wondering what comes next, this conversation offers practical ways to move forward with greater intention.
