What did you want to be when
you were a kid? Did you grow up wanting to be a doctor, lawyer, nurse, fireman, the president, forest ranger,
teacher, farmer, banker, or ?
Now that you are remembering what you wanted to be when you grew up, do you still want to do it?
Has your dream changed a bit? Is this what you are doing now professionally? Have you ever worked in this
occupation you once dreamt of having?
If you haven’t, what happened to this dream? Have you put it on hold until
_____ (fill in the blank: you have more money, have more time, the kids get older, etc.)? Or did you think
it impractical? Or was it your spouse, family, or friends who thought it impractical?
If
you gave your dream a go at one time, but are no longer living it, what took you away? Did you find it
wasn’t the love you thought it would be? Did practical concerns overtake your dream? What happened?
I don’t
discount the magnitude of these questions. They are all of great importance to your professional fulfillment and career aspirations.
There are many reasons, issues and situations that occurred that have shaped who you are today. What
has remained is your lingering dream, or maybe a new dream, which stirs within you. It stirs for many reasons;
maybe you want to realize it or maybe you would like to incorporate it into your life going forward.
I ask you to consider these
questions because you, as a leader in the workplace (yes, we are all leaders in our own workplace), are searching for answers
in yourself about your career and your life, are looking for a new way to execute and achieve your goals, or are trying to
go farther than you have before but aren’t sure how as the old rules don’t apply anymore.
That is where I would like
to be - with you. My goal is you, to join you in your efforts to achieve positive and lasting change in behavior
toward your continued success as a leader.
I
look forward to hearing from you so that we can partner and move you forward, from dreams to reality and ideas to action.
