Week 5: Expand Your Influence & Seek Out New Skills

The surest way to grow your career is to become invaluable at work. And you become invaluable by learning new skills and then demonstrating what you can do and how well you can do it. So, it’s time to make a habit of learning new skills and showing them off. 

When I was starting out, I knew I needed to learn iOS to get ahead and stand out. At the time, iOS courses weren’t available near me, but the Apple ecosystem was huge. It was clear to me that iOS was a “front of the line” skill – one of those rare and special skills that was going to rocket me to the front of any hiring line. After iOS, I added security as a new skill set because I saw a real need in the marketplace for security professionals. Today, in a market where no one is hiring, companies are still fighting over people with security experience. 

If I can do it, so can you. This week we’ll focus on staying on top of trends and identifying the skills that are going to get you where you want to go. Then, we’ll take  those first steps towards building a Brag Book that will show off your skills, providing concrete proof of how invaluable you are.
