Are You A Catalyst? Old School vs. New School.
Which school do you attend? Over the next few weeks, what areas can you cast off and which ones can you take on?
Buckle up. Here we go . . .
Old School:
Do your work. Get to the office on-time. You're an employee. Keep your head down. Don’t make waves. Don’t screw-up. Do whatever your boss tells you to do. Your boss manages and motivates you. Ask permission. Work late. Stay until you retire (or they can you).
"This is a marriage. Unless you screw up, you can stay on for as long as you want to."
New School:
Do your work (that's a constant). Be visible. Brainstorm new ideas and processes. You're a CEO of You, Inc. Communicate your ideas effectively. Add pizzazz to everything you do. Know the prime movers - people, projects, etc. Connect inside and outside of work to build your power base. Work smart. Not hard. Not long. Bosses don't manage — motivate yourself. Brag effectively. Know your tools cold. As for forgiveness, not permission. Get published - eBooks, blog, media, etc. Move frequently.
"This is not a marriage - we’re just dating. We can whack you at any time." - (remember that - Rich)
Which school do you attend? What obsolete areas can you cast off and which critical areas can you take on?
Over the next few weeks, I will be expanding many of these important topics.
