The Loss of a Professional Home and the Search for Career Adaptability: The Disequilibrium of Immigration
By Lorraine Godden
In July 2009, my family and I immigrated to Canada from England. As a woman in my forties, I had built a career in education in England where I felt I was making a useful contribution to society. My skills and experience were, it seemed, of value, and I had a sense of belonging within my professional environment. I felt I had achieved a professional home. Throughout the planning stages of immigration I looked forward with anticipation to the experience of working in a new, different educational milieu. One where I could use my existing expertise, embrace new challenges, and find an even greater sense of professional fulfillment. I greatly misjudged that in moving across the Atlantic; my professional home would be left behind.
