Inside Job the Podcast with Nayla Bahri & Eric Johnson | Episode 203

In Our Conversation Today, We’re Exploring:

  • The complicated range of emotions Eric’s client felt after learning things quickly went south after she moved to a different role within the same company

  • The similar emotions Nayla’s client felt after hearing the opposite about her former role

  • The potential downside of attempting to avoid these emotions

  • The particular perspective that might make the transition out of or into a role easier

  • Our responsibility to our predecessors as the person coming into a new role

It’s our nature to want to feel irreplaceable and that can bring up some complicated emotions whenever we hear how our former departments or organizations are holding up after we vacate a role.

In fact, a recent experience with one of Eric’s clients where the workplace fell apart after she was promoted to a new role is what inspired him to suggest this week’s topic to Nayla.

The realization that Nayla had a client who experienced the opposite situation but was left with the same emotions is why we’re sharing the topic with you on the podcast this week.
