Episode #7: Take Initiative or be an Easily Replaceable Commodity

from Engineer-to-Leader: Creating Your Successful Engineering Career Hosted by Steven Cerri

Taking Initiative is an absolute requirement for advancing and creating the career you want. And for not being easily replaced. Doing good technical work just isn't enough to create and control your career path. Avoid taking initiative and your technical competency will be viewed as a commodity, easily replaced by someone else who can do the same or better technical work. But take initiative, and you will be seen as an organizational asset with opportunities opening up for you. My latest episode (#7) of EngineertoLeader reveals the secrets to what, how, and under what circumstances to take initiative in your organization.
