9. Liz Tait – How to create a career that makes your heart sing

9. Liz Tait – How to create a career that makes your heart sing

We spend so much of our life at work, it clearly makes sense that we should aim to make this time rewarding and enjoyable. But how can you increase your chances that your career will take you in a direction that makes you really happy? In this episode of Fundraising Bright Spots, Rob Woods talks to Liz Tait, Director of Fundraising at Teenage Cancer Trust. When it comes to career development, Liz really knows what she’s talking about – she has taken specific steps over the last two decades that have helped her enjoy and develop her career as she wanted; and she’s also devoted a great deal of time helping others do the same, both as a leader in charities, and in voluntary roles such two years spent as Chair of the Institute of Fundraising Convention Board. In this interview Liz shares practical tactics to work out career next steps even if you feel stuck; ways you can increase your motivation to invest in your career development outside your day to day job, that is, doing things that improve your skills and confidence to land your dream job; and advice to help you go after a job that you will really enjoy, as distinct from something that you might merely be good at.
