I admit it, I am a hypocrite.
I admit it, I am a hypocrite.
I have made a career out of encouraging people to move to new job opportunities however my shameful secret is that.. I am actually terrified of change myself.
Metathesiophobia is the fear of change, it is a persistent, unrealistic, intense anxiety about and fear of new or different situations, circumstances, or objects.
I may not be at that extreme however I have only changed roles 3 times in my 18 years of working prior to joining Redpath a few weeks ago. Now that I have settled in, calmed my nerves and started to get to know my 60 new colleagues, I am so glad that I pushed myself into a new challenge to join such a wonderful team here.
They say a change is as good as a holiday and I am excited to see what this new adventure will bring.
To all my friends, clients, and candidates in Architecture and Interior Design; if we haven't already caught up, I am looking forward to doing so in Sydney and Melbourne in the near future to discuss all things Leadership and Executive Search.
To those of you in my former shoes, weighing up a new change, I say take the leap! Life begins at the edge of your comfort zone!!

4 年Thanks for the Monday morning share! I couldn’t agree more, if your contemplating a change and looking for a sign to indicate it’s the right decision, the fact you are looking for the sign is the sign you have been looking for. Suzie I would love to catch up when you are next in Melbourne.
