People who tend to move from job to job, changing companies or careers more frequently than average workers.
Career nomads are not mediocre talent, leaving before their lackluster performance is discovered. They are highly talented, highly learning agile, sought-after professionals that are not content to stay in one place, and seek out progressive challenges and learning opportunities.
Career nomads can get bored easily and need new challenges to stay engaged. Companies may hire this promising talent only to be disappointed when they leave.
Because career nomads learn new expertise quickly, they can move into hard-to-fill roles, take on ambiguous assignments or start something new… if companies are willing to take a chance on nontraditional career paths.
Organizations with best-in-class talent practices leverage more value from career nomads and reduce the risk of losing these learning-oriented high performers.
