Being different is neither right nor wrong; it is just different. The dietetic profession as part of society holds many differences. These can be divisive, but learning to recognize the strengths that differences generate could lead to a stronger professional future. Three points arose when reflecting on professional experiences of a career of more than 3 decades. Recognizing different ways of creating and gathering knowledge, leading individuals and teams, and valuing the past as well as the future, will provide opportunities to explore our differences as individuals and as a profession. These themes appear at the intersections of values that could initiate inclusion or exclusion. Learnings from these intersections note that growth can occur even in the midst of adversity. Without understanding the junctions in our professional pathways, futures planning may not build upon the foundation of strengths, experiences, and values present within our profession. Learning to be a risk taker, to walk into the fear, has helped Laurie to shape a career that feels satisfying and successful. Suggested techniques to energize individual careers are provided. |
