Many people have aspirations for wanting to thrive and be successful in their jobs and in their careers. Furthermore, due to innovation, the remote workplace, online learning and new careers and industries being formed, there are more paths and opportunities to build jobs and careers that help professionals achieve their fullest potential and get what they want out of their work and careers.
Unfortunately, many employees, while they have the best of intentions for their paths and careers, feel stuck or frustrated. Not many people ever get taught how to effectively manage their careers, or even what it takes to be effective or successful in the workplace.
I know this first-hand, from my own experience entering the workplace right out of college. Even though I had a great education and worked at a phenomenal company, I was not prepared nor did I understand what it actually meant to manage my career.
Since then, I’ve been on a mission to help companies improve how they teach their employees to manage their careers, and helping employees gain the mindset, habits and practices for managing their careers, and I wanted to share some of the key principles I think are needed and relevant for today’s workplace.
