Embracing job insecurity as my daily motivation
Goodbye Elia Group! ❤️
Today is the last day of my mission at Elia Group. And as such, also the last day of my very first mission as a freelancer.
2 years ago, I decided to switch from 19 years on Telenet group's payroll to the insecure world of freelancing.
As strange as it seems, I love my job insecurity. My client could end my contract in just one day. And they don't. I take it as the daily proof that they consider my work valuable. This insecurity became my energy booster! 😊
So while I couldn't help shedding a little tear yesterday on my last office day with my lovely Elia colleagues, I'm leaving this mission with the same energy as when I started it. 🔥
Thanks Elia, let's make sure we meet again! 😘

Thank you Erik for everything you are and did, Elia will not be the same without you 🧡 But we can’t just be selfish here, so go and do great stuff elsewhere now, they deserve a piece of you too 😉 Have fun my friend 🥳 Looking forward to see you shine on stage at RSG!

It was a pleasure having you as a colleague! You are a great personality with a fantastic drive to tackle challenges with a hands-on approach! Your next customers should be happy having you onboard! I’m sure we will meet again! Best of ”luck” to you!
