Our Lives and Careers are Governed by Random Events 2

DIRECTED RANDOM Our careers are impacted by external events Random events are truly NOT under our control Some events truly CANNOT be influenced But some events CAN be controlled And certainly many events CAN be influenced 3 IDENTIFY, SELECT, and NUDGE variables and outcomes towards the desired direction

Priorities & Variables in our Environment health social family finances advice teachers spiritual awareness aspirations competition friends charity 4 network exams Circa: early 00’s Circa: mid 80’sCirca: ‘14 At different stages in our lives, different things take precedence. These can occur in the most natural (accidental) way or can be consciously planned or “nudged” ( Directed Random)

5 What is Career?

An Assortment of Career Trajectories 6 GROWTH TIME BAR KEEPS RISING! [A] [B] [C] [D] [E]

[A] Reasonable (but perhaps feeble) effort to keep up. Falls behind the bar quickly and needs verbal and written perf reviews to keep moving forward Normal career outcome: Perennially in the list for layoff candidates, not relied on for any mission critical work, gets saddled with busy work or stuff others don’t want to do Remedy: Recognize when you are in this situation and get out (change company, change job, change manager, etc) to seek a better fit asap BAR KEEPS RISING! [A] [B] [C] [D] [E] [B] More often than not, this is largely determined by an employee daring employer to fire him/her. Such employees typically don’t last anywhere long. Avoid such tendencies! [C] Methodical, thought out, and optimistic growth. Typically the path most CEOs or Executive Staff take. They have a fairly strong understanding of their environment and tools and capabilities for which gear(s) to push and when. [D] Sometimes may be fool-hardy or determined or a bit un-natural growth path. Still successful but may come at the cost of something dear (health, family, strong foundation, friends, etc). [E] Similar to B but at a higher risk of burnout. Key is to recognize the trends of flattening of the curve and act in preparation (change company, change job, change manager, etc)

BAR KEEPS RISING! [A] [B] [C] [D] [E] So What does “Managing Career Growth” Mean?  Form an idea of what trajectory you wish to pursue  Ask what it takes to achieve the trajectory (talent, knowledge, effort, strategy, network, transitions, etc.)  Decide priorities, and what is in your control and influence  Put a blueprint of how you would achieve the trajectory  Keep Faith, Be Patient, and Execute 9
