Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about the importance of career resilience and how every single working person will have to show it at some point in their lives. Two years ago this week, at the age of 50, I left a job of 17 years—a job that I loved . . . and didn’t love. If I had assigned it a Facebook relationship status, it would have been: “It’s complicated.”
Both the organization and I knew it was time for me to move on. When I left, I went to work for a former vendor that had grown into a trusted adviser over the years.
