Managing Oneself

“Effectiveness starts with knowing how you actually perform, not how you wish you performed.”

“Feedback analysis turns strengths from self-image into evidence.”

“Values matter because a successful role can still be the wrong role.”

“People work better together when they explicitly exchange operating instructions.”

“Contribution is defined by what the situation needs, not only by what you enjoy doing.”

“A knowledge worker must manage relationships as carefully as tasks.”

“Careers become more coherent when strengths, values, and contribution point in the same direction.”
