Friday, December 20, 2013 at 7:35PM Last time you read my story. Now let me introduce you to Carolyn Dawson, co-founder of RECIPRO, and let her tell you how she began creating her own success.
"Having recently been promoted to senior manager I was doing everything I could to prove to myself and others that I was the best person for the job. Working long hours, facing resistance from guys twice my age, being way out of my comfort zone and trying to please everyone, I was exhausted, frustrated and anxious. I had a great job, earning great money and was on my way up the career ladder. Yet why didn’t I feel successful?
Wednesday, December 18, 2013 at 8:26PM I was lying in bed late one morning, not long after leaving a job I had been in for twenty-six years (well, I deserved a rest!), when the phone rang. It was an old colleague and friend. We had a lot to catch up on, and we were having a lot of fun reconnecting and comparing notes when she told me she was engaged in female leadership.
I have to admit I cringed a little - it all sounded a bit fluffy and girlie to me. But then she sent me some reference material, and what I read really knocked me for six.
Tuesday, December 10, 2013 at 10:00AM Working with a new client in Vietnam today I was reminded that the same issues occur the world over. This client was quite refreshing; being more aware than most, he realised he had a leadership issue on his hands, evidenced by how a particular team was behaving. But what made this situation more interesting was the “double whammy”, as this dysfunctional team was attempting to collaborate with an outside agency, and relations there were tetchy to say the least. As he described each situation in more and more detail, I actually started panicking! I was thinking “what on earth is the way out of this…”. I felt completely out of my depth.
