You've been thinking about leaving for months. Today you need to stop thinking and decide — because staying out of fear is a choice too, and it's one you can't afford to make unconsciously.
When you resign matters almost as much as how. Mid-project? After the review cycle? Before the bonus? You're choosing the moment that protects your reputation and your relationships.
You've said it. Now you have two weeks to leave a legacy instead of a mess. The transition is your final act — and how you leave says more about you than how you arrived.
