Say hi to Nathan Richau at Natcams Consulting. He has a post-redundancy story that will inspire you. He took the bull by the horns & wrote his own success story together with Talentology AU!
I met Nathan more than 20 years ago. He asked for my help to move from technical work into project management. I helped him secure a Project Coordinator contract with Telstra under Liam Collins & Luke Shepherd.
Nathan took to project management like a duck to water. He built his career with Telstra Enterprise working on a range of different clients. He built solid professional relationships & has always selflessly helped others.
In September 2022, Nathan was made redundant by Telstra. Like many in his position, he knew it was coming but wasn't ready. Nathan asked for my help & direction to write a new career chapter. I suggested that he should start his own business & Natcams was born!
Working together, we've been able to build Natcams into a successful IT SME. Together, we've won 3 MSAs within the healthcare, telco & IT services sectors, built a sustainable pipeline of project work & have successfully delivered a number of client projects.
Sure there have been some challenging & uncomfortable times, but Nathan has stayed positive & his ongoing success is his reward.
If you know Nathan, he's a big personality with a kind heart. He's a magnificent Program Manager & people leader but admits that he's not the best marketer or sales person (I beg to differ!).
However, Nathan has learned that sales & marketing is just a process, his professional network is his greatest asset, & collaborating with others to mitigate his professional weaknesses is a smart strategy.
The Natcams / Talentology Partnership has developed a sustainable pipeline of leads, opportunities & project work for Natcams over the past 18 months.
The keys to his success is Nathan's self-motivated to succeed, his openness to learn & his bravery to operate outside his comfort zone - traits that are vital & crucial for professional success.
Anyone can be like Nathan. The courage is already within you. You just might need a little guidance in the right direction.
