"It's not what you know, it's who you know" is
truer than ever in today's truly challenged organizations.
The fundamental question then is - how do you know whom to
know?
Personal support, purpose and work/life balance play a vital
role in the filtration of whom to know.
Coaching:
A paired coach or
a close friend proves to be priceless in situations of extreme uncertainty of
bad days.
Sociability:
A solidarity driven
objective based culture tries to take the human factor out of the equation.
Pairing
with more sociable personalities helps drive the broader meaning of work.
Sincerity
An honest
friend will help you bring consistency into positive attidues including
spirtual well-being,
dietary habits and physical health.
With these three key filters at hand - try to choose
influential and passionate change agents around you.
Having the right people around you - try to focus on learning (with passion) and success is inevitable.
