Tips on Career Care and Feeding

If you leave your career on autopilot, you can expect it to crash. Some tips on keeping your career on the right track:

  • No matter what the assignment, do it well. First think of how to do it efficiently and effectively, then get it done.
  • Ask your boss what s/he least likes doing. Then offer to do it.
  • Don't just join professional associations. Pick one to get highly involved in, then roll up your sleeves.
  • Treat everyone with respect.
  • Don't just pick up new skills. Map out skill acquisition with a promotion in mind, acquiring and developing skills for the next level up.
  • Dress for success. Yes, that's an old adage. But ignoring it harms your career prospects.
  • Get to know people outside your company, and not just in your industry. Go to events, trade shows, seminars, and conferences. Follow up with e-mails and phone calls to three people who most impressed you. Think of a lunch or dinner for follow-up discussion.
  • Get a paper or article published. Be a subject matter expert for the trade and professional publications relevant to your career.
