Is it time to take the plunge?
Considering the move to a portfolio career is a huge decision and one not to be taken lightly. With many factors to take into account, we know that sometimes it can be difficult to know where to start.
At Solace, we would like to support you in your research, if you’re in this early phase, and provide you with insights into what’s in store when moving into the interim/consultancy world. We also want to ensure that you feel in a position to present the best version of yourself to the market, as authenticity is key to you shining through in your portfolio career.
Where better to start than to hear from your fellow peers who have ‘been there and done that’.
We’re pleased to share with you our latest conversation with one of our valued associates, Ann-Marie Barlow. If you’re preparing to take the plunge into interim or consultancy, take a look below at some brilliant advice, lived experiences and learnings from Ann-Marie’s journey so far…
