I decided to take a break in my career after almost 14 years in the reward industry to take care of my son. It was an opportunity to evaluate my career goals and spend some time with family who live overseas. It has been a great time to re-focus and understand better what I enjoy, and the type of work I excel in. In addition to this, I feel that I am able to come back to the workforce refreshed and better equipped.
