Career Development Lessons Learned

Kiron Bondale Retired | Mentor| Retired Welland, Ontario, Canada

Whether we perform lessons learned at the end of a project phase or retrospectives on a regular basis, a fairly common question asked of us is "What would we do different next time?".

So let me put you on the spot.

If you were granted a wish to be able to go back in time and change just one professional/work-related thing which you did (or didn't do) over the course of 2019, what would that be?

Dear Kiron
Interesting your question
Thanks for sharing

My year 2019 was full of challenges and full of achievements.

Perhaps I would devote a little more time to my spiritual dimension:
- What is my purpose?
- What are the principles governing humanity?
- Is my life aligned with my purpose and the principles governing humanity?

I would try to spend my spare time more efficiently.

For the most part, I'm seeing generalities - what I like to call "Apple Pie & Motherhood". Let's be more specific. What is that one specific thing which you would do different?
