Reset: Lessons from Building a Global Career the Hard Way

Careers rarely follow a straight line. From international moves and ambitious leaps of faith to professional setbacks, financial pressure and rebuilding from scratch, this is an honest reflection on what it really takes to reset and start again. Drawing on a 25 year global career across New Zealand, Spain and the UK, Meredith shares the human lessons behind the CV. The moments when things unravel. The decisions made under pressure. The realities of working across cultures and navigating leadership environments that do not always go to plan. This is not a story about flawless success. It is a story about resilience, reinvention and refusing to stay down. If you have ever questioned a career decision, trusted the wrong leader, faced a professional setback or found yourself having to begin again, this session will offer perspective, reassurance and practical insight into how to rebuild with clarity and strength.
