Fast forward to the year 2030. According to forecasts by Dell Technologies and Institute for the Future, a whooping 85% of the jobs that will exist have not even been invented yet!

Fair to say, with the onslaught of technology, artificial intelligence and virtual reality, the future workplace will be completely different to what we operate in today. Whilst this is sooper exciting, it can also be a little daunting.

Imagine this scenario…

You have been working for the same leader for over a decade. You are damn good at your job. You go over and above each and every day. In fact, you are so good, you have been given the extra responsibility to oversee a very important project (on top of your existing role). Who feels sick at even the thought of this conversation?

Yesterday was the first time in over five weeks of having to get dressed (I mean, dressed up, for work!), combat the commute into the CBD and have my first client meeting! Man, I gotta be honest, it was a struggle.

Hard to believe 2017 has nearly come and gone. I am so proud to say, it was full of fun, new clients, new friends, new programs, new adventures and lots of amazing new memories made.

Earlier this week I was on a plane (just for a change!), standing at my seat, waiting for the Qantas crew to help stow my cabin bag in the overfilled luggage compartment above.

As I waited patiently, the entire plane boarded, many looking at me strangely, as I stood awkwardly, bag on seat, watching them pass me by. It didn’t help that the plane was full of the Australian National Rugby League Team, The Kangaroos (not that I even realised this at the time, much to the disgust of my league-adoring daughter, Mack).
