Well, i received some interesting news...first i came into a very pleasant conversation with my boss... we are doing kind of a monthly review or check in, if you will. Basically a chance to discuss anything that concerns you, anything that you are impressed with, anything that needs to change etc. Well mine was all good, received praises for all of my contributions, was told that i was a leader, and my work was really noticed!! WOW!! and i have only been here a month! That was great news, it is a great feeling to know that your hard work and dedications will pay off and gets noticed...
Then later in the day i learned that the person that was supposed to be my manager in October, will no longer be coming, which leaves a management position open...my friends and co-workers all think it is something i should go after, however, i am very uncertain if it is something i am capable of. Anyone that knows me, knows that if i cant give it my all, i dont want to do it, i firmly believe that you should excel in everything you do, there is no room for second place.
I hold my work ethic and moral very high, i live by my word and practice what i preach, i feel that i am a very knowledgeable person, a reliable employee, a strong leader, however, doubt my management skills.
I am not sure that i would ever be considered for a position like this, but my co-workers think i would be a great fit, which is a compliment in its self...
The dilemma, is it something i would go after, knowing that eventually, i think i would love to end up back in the sales world...then the question, is it possible i would like managing more than i liked sales and stick to it?? i am a creature of habit, change scares me, especially when it affects me personally...
Who knows what life will bring, i will think about it, and pray about it....leave it in Gods hands, and let him take care of the rest! :)
