Seems like a lot of people I know are changing careers. Many people around my age are just all of a sudden getting fancy sounding management/board of director jobs.
I think it's just an age thing, as many of these people don't seem especially experienced in those roles. No one wants/respects a 35 or younger manager. When you get to a certain age, more opportunities just seem to become available.
There also seems to be some general restructuring going on across many different industries, which, in itself, seems to be creating opportunities.
So yes, I'd say it's a great time to look for new opportunities.
