Your Career is Your Business Every person, whether he is an employee or self-employed, is like an individual business. Your career is your business, and you are its CEO. Just like the CEO of a large cor

7、poration, you must respond to market forces, head off competitors, and be alert to the possibility that what you are doing can be done in a different way. You must protect your career from harm and position yourself to benefit from changes in the operating environment. This business of one often enc

8、ounters a defining point where an action you take will determine whether your career bounces upward or slumps into decline. Lets call it a career inflection point. A career inflection point most often results from a subtle but profound shift in the operating environment in which you work, a shift th

9、at demands that you respond with action. This action will not necessarily introduce an immediate discontinuity into your career, but it may unleash forces that in time will have a lasting and significant effect. A strategic inflection point reflects a wrenching moment in the life of a company, but t

10、he effort of navigating through it is spread among members of a community. Career inflection points are more intense, because everything rests on the shoulders of one individual you. Career inflection points happen to everyone. Consider the ease of a business journalist I know. This man used to be a

11、 banker. He was happily and productively employed until the day he went to work and learned that his employer had been acquired by a larger bank. In short order he was out of a job. He then became a stockbroker. For a while, things went well and the future looked promising. However, a short time bef

12、ore we met, online brokerage firms started to appear. Several of this mans clients left him, preferring to do their business with low-cost online firms. The handwriting was on the wall. This time our man decided to make his move early. He had always had an interest in and aptitude for writing. Build

13、ing on the financial knowledge he had already acquired, he found himself a job as a business journalist, a less lucrative position but one less likely to be done in by technology. This transition Was not as traumatic (痛苦而难忘的 ) as the move from hank to brokerage; this time he had initiated it rather

14、than waiting for change to be forced on him by outside forces. To know whether youre facing a career inflection point, you must be alert to changes in your environment. Working inside an organization, youre often sheltered from the world at large. In some ways you tacitly relinquish (放弃 ) responsibi

15、lity for your welfare to your employer. But if you take your eyes off the environment in which your company operates, you may be the last to know of potential changes that could have an impact on your career. The Mental Fire Drill You should train yourself to look for strategic inflection points tha

16、t may affect your career. Simply put, you need to be a little paranoid about your career. One way to do this is to go through a mental fire drill: Act as if you were the CEO of a large company, a CEO who is open to outside views and stimuli. Read newspapers. Attend industry conferences. Network with

17、 colleagues in other companies. Listen to chatter from colleagues and friends. When different sources all reinforce the idea that change is afoot- whether in your industry or another one- it is time to sit up and ask yourself a series of questions like these: - Do these anecdotes indicate changes th

18、at might somehow apply to you? - What would you do if you were affected by such a change? - How likely is your company to be affected by changes in your industry? - If you think that developments originating in other industries could have a ripple effect on your job, are you confident of learning th

19、e new ways? If not, what should you do? Only through this kind of vigorous debate with yourself can you determine whether youve reached a career inflection point. The only way to hone your ability to recognize and analyze changes is to question the tacit assumptions underlying your daily work. Timin

20、g Is Everything Success in navigating a career inflection point depends largely on a sense of timing. But you have invested a lot in getting your career to where it is and youve got great hopes of rising further along the current trajectory(轨道 ) of your career. So its more than likely that after ask

21、ing yourself the kinds of questions listed above and deciding that a troublesome shift is underway, your whole being will probably work to try to deny that this is so. Denial can come from two wholly different sources. If youve been very successful in your career, the smoothness of success may keep

22、you from recognizing danger. If youve just been hanging on, fear of change may make you reluctant to risk what little you have. Either way, denial can cost you time, causing you to miss the best moment for action. As in managing business, it is rare that people make career calls early. But the truth

23、 is that a change made under the benign bubble of an existing job will be far less wrenching than a change made once your career has started to decline. If you are among the first to take advantage of a career inflection point, you are likely to find the best pick of the new opportunities. Simply pu

24、t, the early bird gets the worm; latecomers get leftovers. Get in Shape for Change The period between an early sense of foreboding and an actual career inflection point is valuable. Just as athletes get in shape for competition, this is your time to get in shape for change. Picture yourself in diffe

25、rent roles. Talk to people in those kinds of jobs. Conduct a dialogue with yourself about how suited you are for a new line of work. Train your brain for the big change. Experimentation is a key way to prepare for change. This can take several different forms. For the stockbroker-turned-journalist,

26、this meant dusting off his writing skills and contracting potential employers early. You might consider moonlighting(兼职 ) or going back to school part-time. You may want to ask your current employer for a new and entirely different assignment. As you experiment, avoid random motion. Dont take blind

27、steps just to head in a different direction. Guide yourself by your understanding of the nature of the changes that are upon on you. Look for something that allows you to use your knowledge or skills in a position thats immune to the wave of changes you have spotted. Better yet, look for a job that

28、actually takes advantage of the changes. Go with the flow rather than fight it. When a corporation navigates a strategic inflection point, the CEO is called upon to describe a clear vision of the new industry map and to provide the leadership to get the organization across this valley. As CEO of you

29、r own career, you must supply the vision and commitment yourself. Arriving at the clarity of direction through a dialogue with yourself and then maintaining your conviction when you wake up in the middle of the night filled with doubts is not easy. Yet you have no choice. You have just one career. Y
