Career Growth - Quora Reads
Key Lessons are
- Being on time (always) or early (better)
- Spending an extra 10-15 minutes reviewing your work and catching basic mistakes before your boss does
- Structuring your work so it's easy for others to understand and leverage (good structure/footnotes/formatting)
- Taking on unpleasant schleps/tasks (volunteer for them; don't complain; do it even when there's no apparent benefit to you)
- If you’re offered a seat on a rocket ship, don’t ask what seat. Just get on. Right place at the right time to ride the wave
- You learn the most in 1) rapidly growing organizations or 2) failing organizations
- Career Tracks & Meritocracies don't exist: Your career is not a linear, clearly defined trajectory. It will be messy and will move more like a step function
- You should always be aware of what your "labels" are
- Pay it forward and help people. Your network will be one of the biggest drivers of your success
