I personally understand what it’s like to want and to dream of a more fulfilling role in project management.
To know that I’m capable of doing and contributing more to my organization and projects.
I wanted to lead a team.
I wanted to work on complex and interesting projects…
That had an impact on my organization and delighted my clients...
And propelled me forward in my career.
But that wasn’t my reality.
And maybe it’s not yours either.
Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night worrying that you’re going to be STUCK in your current role?
That your career is going to stagnate…
That you can contribute SO MUCH MORE…
… if someone would just give you a chance to prove yourself?
Well if you have, you’re not alone.
I was four months into my new role as a Project Coordinator and I was miserable.
I felt underutilized, undervalued, and frustrated.
I recently left my previous job in design to follow my dream of leading projects...
By being wooed into a role with a company that wasn't the right fit…
And I knew I was capable of doing and contributing so much more.
As the months went on, the self-doubt started to creep in.
Maybe I wasn’t good enough.
Maybe it just wasn’t meant to be.
Should I go back to my previous job in design and just be happy with that?
The anxiety started to affect my health…
I was constantly sick with worry...
And I knew at that moment that I needed to make a change.
This was me 14 years ago and I'm SO glad I didn't go back to my previous job. :-)
I ended up joining the right company and stayed with them for 11+ years.
I went on to lead teams of 100+ people…
Delivering large-scale industrial projects…
Across 3 countries, including a mega-project in the Netherlands.
Want to know my secret…?
I’m talking about…
