This episode's question is...

When I started in my current position a couple of years ago, I made clear that my expectation was that travel would be minimal. Over time, my role (title) hasn't changed, but both the company and my position have evolved, including a slight increase in the amount of expected travel. Now I'm being told that, because of the company's current direction and my role, I'm going to need to travel more, including some pretty significant international travel. I've considered proposing some creative solutions and alternatives, but in the end if they are going to insist I travel more, and extensively, I'm going to be forced to quit. How would you handle the situation?

This episode's question...

I get very frustrated when things change constantly. I plan for so long and then my company just changes direction entirely and all of my plans are useless. How do I stop these constant changes or at least slow them down? Should I even try? Should I just stop planning?
