The Winds of Change

"The only constant in our industry, and in our lives, is change," so said the Principal of our company as he introduced our new CFO. I have mixed feelings about this change, as does nearly everyone else in our firm. I have been in this position for nearly one year. In that I feel I have built a reputation with our executive staff and I was looking forward to capitalizing on that reputation at review time. Now, during one of the busiest times of the year (with 20 open positions and open enrollment next month), we will be getting a new boss. I am definitely feeling a lot of uncertainty.
On the flip side of that is the fact that change is good. It is good to get a fresh perspective, a new set of eyes, and shake things up. I love the excitement and the rush of making new plans and seeing them to fruition.
I guess in the end it is just going to be a crazy first quarter!
