Either you proactively manage your career or someone else will!
To really achieve the success in business you desire, you must become the CEO of your own career.
The role of a CEO in any organization is to:
- Provide inspiration and leadership
- Steer the company’s direction
- Manage resources in the most effective way
- Plan the future
- Set ethics and values, and
- Make money for the stakeholders
Well, aren’t you a stakeholder in your own results? Don’t you deserve to steer your own direction?
Action – Write down your name on a sticky note, and end it with INC or LTD. You’ll end up with something like Bob Smith Inc or Jane Doe Ltd. Post this note in a location where you see it all the time.
Apply the same principles, skills and actions to your own career like any CEO would to a successful organization. Because if you’re not running your career, who is?
