To embrace change one requires immense EQ , as just IQ or core talent alone does not suffice.

Dr Garima Singh
Team formation

A decade back, decisions pertaining to choice of place of work used to be based on job security. However, the world over, the scenario has changed and job security is neither provided in private nor government sector. Even government sector employment has moved from fixed employment (till the age of retirement) to two-year contracts. Healthcare professionals are grappling with this change, unable to accept the frequent changes in employment terms and organisations. This age belongs to professionals who are ready to embrace the change, adapt and deliver value. To be able to do so requires immense EQ (emotional quotient) and just IQ/ core talent alone does not suffice.

Any change in our work environment evinces a reaction in us much like the fight or flight response to physical danger. Change is perceived as a threat and we start to evaluate where we stand in the midst of this change. Most do not take time to reflect internally but rather focus on external factors which are usually not in their span of control, thereby losing heart and feeling victimised.

Formal trainings are available to help manage the change. When dealing with a change in your job environment, the following questions will help you decide next steps:

Are you the pigeon or the statue? Are you the immobile statue on which the pigeon poops or are you that agile bird in flight which decides where to sit?

Evaluate your current role with regards to change that is happening. Is the role still relevant?
