About Tony

Hi I’m Tony Pisanelli

When I say, “a secure career and purposeful and satisfied life,” I mean finally: 

• acquiring the adaptability to thrive in a fast-changing employment world
• being energised and inspired by what you do for a living
• having a clear vision, meaningful purpose and the certainty in yourself to make a greater contribution.

We all know stories of people who have lost their jobs. But did you know that not all of them were devastated by the experience? In fact, some turned it into an amazing opportunity to become their own boss and live more fulfilling lives.

If you’re not in a career that is fulfilling a higher purpose beyond getting paid for the pain of work … you are living an empty and meaningless existence … and life is too short for that!

So, if your career is an important pillar of your life that supports your family responsibilities and financial obligations while giving you a sense of identity in the world, you can no longer allow your working life to drift along aimlessly.

Like all aspects of life, careers have beginnings, a middle and an end.

As a teenager, my choice of accounting as a career path was influenced by parental expectations. It was no surprise that dissatisfaction would raise its head early in my career. Lunchtime walking in a nearby park felt more like a prison escape than a short break. This painful situation necessitated the first of many career reinventions that saw me leave number crunching behind in pursuit of broader business roles.

As I felt more at home connecting with a bigger business picture than being a little bean counter, my workdays quickly became far more enjoyable after I made a change.
