Hi all
I have been in my current role for 16 months, which was a promotion following a period of working with an area and team I really struggled with, and as a result knocked my confidence and I feel impacted on me health wise.
I have done well in my current role but struggle with feeling that I always have to prove my worth. The team I work with is new and there is an 'immature leader' who picks faults & can be a bit of a back stabber at times. My current role lacks definition and purpose at times, which I do find difficult to drive forward.
A role has come up in an area adjoined to my last position, which I am tempted by as it is new and unique and a chance for me to use my experience but I am conscious that although it is not working directly with some of the people I worked with previously there could be some indirect overlap/contact. My OH thinks I should avoid it given the lack of support and bad management I was exposed to previously (Inexperienced management team, very cliche, talking about staff/me within earshot, team building events that finished at the pub but I wasn't invited to etc), but I am not sure, perhaps it is the impending new year but I feel like I need a new role, which offers me more scope. Am I mad?
