What Is
Your "Change Personality?"
The only thing
certain in life is change, and people react to change in
different ways.
When it comes to dealing with change, we all have
strengths and weaknesses. But since change is a
constant at work, the wrong reaction can sometimes be a
career-killer. See
if you can spot your "change personality" on our
Spotlight page. If you find that you are an
Optimist,
a Follower,
a Worrier,
a Resister,
or an Advocate,
pay particular attention to the strengths and
weaknesses of that profile.

I'm ready to quit!
Q: My manager encouraged me to apply for a promotion to senior
accountant.
Unfortunately, after I submitted my resume,
the position was changed to one with supervisory
duties.
Although I was one of four finalists, the job went
to an outside candidate from a search firm.
I feel that I was set up to fail.
Now, much to my dismay, I’m expected to train my new
supervisor when he starts work.
At the same time, I am single-handedly
running a critical project and also training another
employee.
I feel that management is
taking advantage of me, so I have begun to look for
another job.
Am I wrong to resent this situation?
