Reaching Your Fullest Business-Leadership Potential in a Time of Change
These are unusual times. The past several months have caused many of us to reflect on our purpose and career goals. If you count yourself among this group, you’re in good company. You may also be ready to take the next steps to reaching your ultimate professional goals, whether they involve making strides in a current role, ascending a company’s hierarchy, or launching a new venture. But these are not steps that will be reached by osmosis—or even, necessarily, by showing up to work every day, no matter your talent or work ethic.
What Great Business Leaders Do to Accelerate Their Careers
In the pursuit of greater success, aspiring professionals face an array of daunting challenges, each of which may require them to draw on different skills and perspectives. So over time, standout leaders deliberately refine their approaches to learning, self-reflecting, decision-making, communicating, and acting. In other words—they work on themselves, carefully and with intention.
Learning, Reflecting, Making Decisions, Acting, Communicating
Many high-achieving professionals acknowledge at some point that they might be ready for even more—perhaps formal training, such as an executive MBA program—but these journeys often begin with simple acts, like reading and reflecting. That’s where this book comes in.
