Diversity and change are two words that come to mind when I read the professional profiles of Health Information Managers (HIMs) in Health Information Management Journal. It is amazing to see the variety of positions HIMs have filled, and the many countries in which they have worked. As a HIM who graduated over 20 years ago, and who has spent her professional life primarily in one organisation, my professional profile is not typical of most of the recent profiles I have read. However, although employed by the one institution over most of this period, the terms diversity and change can still apply. During my career I have held several different positions and the tasks I have undertaken have changed dramatically during that time.
