Navigating Your IT Career

Yours,

Guess we are all a bit worried those days…hearing and seeing all the recession related news…

I was thinking how we can shine above all this, and help our companies as well

as ourselves to succeed and go through all the challenges…

So I want to share with you several resources I have found.

I’ll mention here the first one.

But I want to share with you first a short story that relates to it.

My boy has just started to become interested in girls…

And he asked me to bring him books about girls in his age.

He wanted to know what interests them, what troubles them and so on.

So I asked, why he’s interested in what girls go through instead about what

happens to boys.

He said “Dad, you told me that the best way to succeed in business is learn

every thing you can about the other person you want to partner with”.

So here is a resource that will help you to get to know your partner

in your workplace…that is your employees and your employee.

Its about knowing what the other person is concerned of and what

methods he uses to measure and grade…”
