In today’s challenging job market, no single set of rules can be followed to ensure that you will be successful or not lose your job because of a merger, a layoff, outsourcing, or automation. You can, however, use certain skills to enhance the odds of having career success and reduce the odds of becoming marginalized or unemployed. Furthermore, if you do lose your job, taking the following suggestions can greatly increase your odds of finding a new job in less time and with less financial and personal stress.
If I could sum up the secrets to succeeding in your job in two rules, the first would be to work smart and the second would be to work hard at working smart. To me, working smart is about having a plan to reach your goal and then working hard every day in the execution of that plan. True winners plan for success. The hard work is in the planning and the execution of your plan. This is where most fail, because they fail to plan. Furthermore, if they do plan, they don’t put enough effort into the execution of the plan. In this chapter, you will learn the fundamentals of planning a successful career and some techniques for executing and refining your plan along the way.
When Corporate Sh*t Happens provides a roadmap for every stage of your career.
