Exhilarating New Challenges~
I’m
still acclimating to my new role in the corporate liability unit for the
insurer that employs me. While I’ve developed a comfort level with my casualty
position that feels almost as if I am coasting in some respects, I am celebrating
the challenges of my expanded responsibilities.
Last
week I found myself completely enthusiastic, intrigued, uncomfortable,
stretched intellectually and energized. I felt excited by having to delve into
something new, interact with a different workgroup, and learn unfamiliar case
law to which I can still apply my years of experience. Ultimately, I have the
chance to use the tools I’ve honed over my years in casualty insurance claims,
apply them to representing the interests of my company, and work with new team
members to formulate strategies that appropriately manage risk.
It
has been a long time since I’ve experienced such exhilaration at work. I am so
grateful to the managers who recommended me for this opportunity, which affords
me a chance to pursue a different career path that I’d never considered.
The
lesson~ be open to any opportunity. Change is more often than not a good thing.
It keeps us feeling alive. I plan to continue to embrace opportunities for
change and growth with the intention to live every moment to the fullest.
