"Even a hamster bike looks like a career ladder from the inside," it says. There is a lot of truth in this: the desire to achieve further, higher and more can end in a cul-de-sac - this is currently shown by the case of Karstadt manager Eva-Lotta Sjöstedt. 5 tips to prevent this from happening.
Dead end - it can be that fast
It can fast walking the dead end: getting a great job offer, with higher salary, more managerial responsibility, more creative freedom – supposedly. In the initial euphoria, concerns about nice promises are quickly ignored:
For example, that you have to move from the big city to the countryside. Or that you can take the salary increase with you clear More Stress must buy. Or that the creative freedom is not as great as expected.

A current example is the Karstadt manager Eva-Lotta Sjöstedt, who has just thrown the towel this week. Reason: Too little support from Nicolas-Berggruen, owner of Karstadt.
Such a situtation is difficult if one can not get back from his old job or no new possibilities open up on the horizon.
5 Tips, so that the career ladder does not become the Sachgasse
But how can such misjudgments be avoided? We give 5 tips on how they can maintain a realistic view from the beginning in such situations.
- To be informed: It may sound hackneyed, but in the first euphoria you will miss some warning. It is important to find out before a supposed rise exactly what the new job means - eg more stress, more travel, moving to the countryside. Because the supposed dream job can quickly become a nightmare.
- Know your goals exactly: If you want to be successful, you should know exactly what success means to you. This is not always synonymous with more salary and more responsibility. Therefore, one should realize what is important in life - and whether the new job really fits these personal goals.
- Is the work fulfilling in the long term? If you do not have time for hobbies, family and relaxation, the batteries are quickly empty and top performances impossible. If you do not have time for hobbies, family and relaxation, you should ask about the short-term salary increase.
- The chemistry must be right: But it is also important that you get along with your new colleagues and your boss. Anyone who has slight doubts at the beginning as to whether it can work should not simply wipe them aside but try to get more information.
- The rise a flop - and now? What can you do if it turns out that the supposed rise on the career ladder was a flop? Restrict damage. Perhaps there is still a possibility to continue in the old job. If not, you can bridge the waiting for new opportunities with other jobs or make yourself independent.
