When my dream company — and with that my dream job — got acquired by a large company, my until-then smooth career path changed dramatically. In a single day, I found myself in a totally different environment. However, up to that point, I hadn’t realized how much I had already settled into my comfort zone. I wasn’t at all reluctant to change, yet prior to this, change had only happened occasionally. At that time, I was primarily driven by adding to my achievements; adding to my skillset was secondary only. Everything worked out very well that way, because nothing made me feel uneasy, not even the challenging parts. It was great. But all of a sudden this changed when the new sheriffs arrived in town. Although I struggled with the changes from time to time, I’m glad that I accepted the challenge, because my business knowledge and skills grew further.
