It is inevitably the little things that make the big difference.
Think back to your most recent career success.
I’ll guarantee it had something to do with what seemed at the time to be a relatively small detailed decision you made or action you took.
Perhaps you:
Stood out from the usual crowd.
Decided not to follow everyone else.
Asked a difficult question in a meeting.
Contributed a novel idea at a conference.
Complimented a colleague for her contribution.
Stand out from the crowd; be different - here are four tips from my own career for you.
1 Don't follow the beaten path: join a relatively small organisation, but one where your contribution is unique.
2 Become a big fish in a small pond: go and work in another country for five years and learn another language.
3 Find a mentor and a mastermind group: consult them regularly and hold yourself accountable to them.
4 Never listen to people who say, "I wouldn't do that if I were you!" or "You'll never be able to do that!"
