Politics and the Profession Not a Winning Combination
In my almost 29 years as a hypnotherapist I have seen organisations come and go, people come and go, but the profession itself moved forward. This profression was not always smooth, but it always moved forward. I am seeing something that is rather unsavoury at the moment. In an organisation, which I had the privilege to Chair for a number of years. There are political maschinations going on with unsubstantiated allegations being made by one faction in the organisation with the claim it is trying to save the organisation.
It has never ceased to amaze me that in a profession where we are helpers of others we are so dismal at treating each other with the appropriate respect needed. It is a failing which I know I have been a part of over the years. I would like to reach out to my colleagues and ask everyone to take a breath, remember we are all on the same side.
Let’s not descend into the bickery which has tainted many people’s view of politics, surely we are above this and we should put aside our differences and work to make the profession a better on and something that we can all be proud of.
