Manage episode 371657489 series 3238045
Do you avoid discomfort at work? Human Resources exec Lashanna “Sha” Farley reveals why feeling uncomfortable is, actually, good for your career.
We chat with Sha about her career pivot to non-profit after working in corporate America for 20-plus years at some of the biggest companies, including Walmart, Pfizer and Sam’s Club. Sha tells us about the tough decision to leave and how her faith helped her work through her doubts.
After five years, Sha is back in corporate as the Chief Human Resources Officer for Allvue Systems, a private-equity backed SaaS company. She shares how her career pivot opened the door to the C-suite and how discomfort can help you grow as a person and advance your career.
“If you’re not uncomfortable at least one day a week at your job, then it’s time for a new job because it means you’re not growing,” says Sha, who’s African American.
