Here's why a consultant's quick 3-step solution doesn't work
You know those management consultants with their magic formulas… just three steps and your problem’s solved? Well, change doesn’t work like that.
That’s because change isn’t the problem, change is an external manifestation of something much deeper and more profound. The thing you are really struggling with is TRANSFORMATION and it’s happening at a subconscious level.
Change is all around us. The moon changes phases, the sun gets eclipsed, and comets arrive without warning. You may be experiencing some sort of change in your life, be it a job loss, a health shock, an economic shock, the loss of a client, a loved one or the ability to operate in the way you used to. Change is the trigger, what really counts is how you feel about it and respond to it – that’s what you need to focus on.
Why trust Brett with this training course?
During the past 25 years that I have been working as a professional chemical engineer I have:
- worked in 4 different industries
- recovered from 3 retrenchments
- found work after being unemployed for a year and a half following the 2008 financial crisis
- applied for more jobs than I can remember, and
- attended dozens of interviews
Every one of these transitions has been challenging. These techniques and skills are based on personal experience and my understanding of best practice, having studied the subject for the past few years.
Change can be a black hole that sucks the life out of you
You’re a professional and your world has turned upside down. The future is no longer what you thought it would be. It feels like a black hole has appeared and gobbled up all your light. You are not happy about things. You feel stuck, orbiting a planet that no longer feels like your home and you’re not sure what to do next. If things stay like this for long enough you are going to start feeling desperate. Actually, some part of you is already feeling a bit desperate. Something needs to change. You need a rocket to get you out of here but you just don’t have the energy to start building one, neither the energy to hang on to one if it came zooming past you.
A new dawn, a new day
Imagine getting to a point where you are no longer feeling stuck and you understand the cause of your struggle. Imagine that you have discovered new ideas and inspirations for your life and career and you are filled with energy and enthusiasm to move forwards. You have a rocket, and it’s full of rocket fuel and you are just burning to light the fuse. The gravity of the situation that has been dragging you down has lost its grip and you are ready to go where you need to go to experience happiness and success.
Training course
The way forward
While the specifics of the change or transition you are grappling with may be different to what others are experiencing, the process of change and transition is the same. Understanding the change cycle lets you know what you need to do for yourself and focus on at each stage in the cycle and enables you to navigate a way forward.
Asking for help is brave. Finding help is smart. I will teach you what you need to know, clarify what you need to do and coach you on how to implement these principles.
