Embracing a New Beginning - Aldina Duarte Ramos
After a fulfilling 15-year tenure as the Global Wellness Director for Accor Hotels, I find myself at a pivotal moment, ready to embrace a new start. This transition, from a secure role in a well-established company to the uncharted waters of entrepreneurship, is both exhilarating and daunting. Yet, it’s a step that is essential, not just professionally, but personally as well.
Personal Growth through Change
Change, particularly when it involves stepping out of a well-established comfort zone, is a powerful catalyst for personal growth. Over the years, I’ve learned that expanding your comfort zone is akin to expanding your capabilities and experiences. This shift is not just about changing jobs; it’s about evolving as a person. It involves learning new skills, such as entrepreneurship, which requires a different mindset compared to working in a large, structured organization. This change is a leap into a world where risks are higher, but so are the rewards. It’s about mastering the art of adaptability, resilience, and embracing the unknown.
Professional Transformation
On a professional level, this new chapter is about sharing my wealth of knowledge and experience in wellness and marketing with a broader audience. My goal is to make a more significant impact by collaborating with various companies, helping them to understand how wellness can be a key driver of performance and innovation. In my role at Accor Hotels, I witnessed firsthand how prioritizing wellness can transform a business’s culture and output. Now, I aim to bring this insight to other organizations, inspiring them to place wellness at the center stage of their strategies.
Inspiring Others
One of the most fulfilling aspects of this new venture is the opportunity to inspire others. By sharing my journey and the lessons learned along the way, I hope to offer a new perspective to those who might be contemplating a similar change. Change, especially in a professional capacity, can often seem intimidating. By demonstrating the positive outcomes of embracing such transitions, I aim to encourage others to pursue their aspirations, even if it means stepping into unfamiliar territory.
Wellness as a Performance Driver
Throughout my career, a core belief has been that wellness is not just a component of success; it is a driver of it. In my new role, I plan to delve deeper into this philosophy. My service will not only emphasize wellness but will use it as a foundation for driving innovation and success in various business settings. The goal is to make wellness an integral part of the business model, not just an afterthought.
The Fast Track to Innovation
Transitioning into entrepreneurship means embracing a fast-paced environment where innovation is not just valued but essential. My approach will be to integrate wellness into this innovative mindset, showing how it can be a catalyst for creative solutions and sustainable business practices. By placing wellness at the forefront, I aim to revolutionize how companies perceive and achieve success.
In conclusion, this new start is more than just a career change; it’s a personal evolution and a professional revolution. It’s about taking the insights and experiences from a fulfilling career and using them to inspire, innovate, and instigate change in a broader context. As I embark on this journey, I am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead, not just for me, but for the many individuals and organizations I will have the privilege of working with.
So, let’s discover what the future holds together — stay tuned for my personal insights and updates.
