Survivor guilt is a real thing.
After significant organisational change is imposed, there are those that leave and those that are left behind. Neither path is easy.
When you are left behind, you often experience deep pangs of guilt. It is beyond your control, but that doesn’t ease the feelings of shame, responsibility, and trauma. This is especially the case when the team impacted is tight and friendships are involved.
For Stephanie Varidel, being chosen as a survivor during a corporate change was not a blessing, but a catalyst. A catalyst that helped her to carve out her own path, where she was heavily involved in creating a new culture of trust.
There are many impacts of mergers and acquisitions – and often unintended consequences.
For those of us that have experienced a takeover, we know the feeling of our career suddenly changing course. It is something beyond our control and it can be deeply unsettling.
Although it often presents opportunity for many within the new organisation, for others the opportunity is outside. And sometimes, this is the catalyst that creates entrepreneurs.
For Shaun van Dijk, it was a takeover that ultimately led to him co-creating his own business. Five years later, Intellect Labs continues to go from strength to strength and is a remarkable success story.
Sometimes taking a leap of faith and believing in your own capabilities is the alchemy that changes your life.
After ten years with the same company, Matt McLean had a clear next step lined up, until life interrupted the plan.
When his company was sold, he was set to transition to a new firm. But with the arrival of his newborn son, parental leave gave him an unexpected gift: mental space.
In the quiet moments away from work, Matt realised he’d been following someone else’s path.
Instead of stepping into the new role, he chose uncertainty, making one phone call that changed everything.
Five years later, that moment of clarity built something extraordinary.
Sometimes, the most important turning points come when you finally stop long enough to listen.
