Imagine walking down a road and you approach a fork. You have two choices. One option takes you down a linear path: comfortable yet predictable. The other option is non-linear: uncomfortable and unexpected, but you’ll see tremendous growth (in your skills, profession, personally, etc.). It’s your moment, what do you choose?   

For Hernan, a partner and head of our global Performance Improvement practice, he accepted the unpredictability and chose the latter. When he mixed that with a place like Bain, the outcomes were endless opportunities to work out of various offices around the world, leadership roles and a seat on our board of directors. Looking back, he knows he made the right decision.  

Hear about his journey to getting comfortable with uncertainty as he encourages you to make moves that give you learning, energy and interest—all accumulated into a career of successive goals.
