Hello Readers
Question for you, what do you have that an employer may want? Why you? I had a conversation with my son the other night about his "why.” I started the conversation off by asking him why do you want to move up the career ladder. Why do you want to be a general manager or even a district manager? These titles sure do "sound" good; however, I challenged him to ask himself why he really wants to pursue these positions. I advised him that he has to know his "why" if he wants to build his career at the famous grocery store chain he is employed with. The famous "why" question is going to be asked during the interview process, so it helps if you are prepared. Ask yourself these questions:
1. What about being a manager intrigues you? Why do you want to manage other people? This is NOT an easy task. You will have to deal with personalities and yes people will not like you. Can you handle that?
2. Do you know the difference between a manager, supervisor, and a leader? If not, start your research today.
3. Leaders know their personal vision and the vision of the company. These are two different visions and can run parallel to one another; however, your vision can never be the same as the company, let’s just say that is not being authentic and others will recognize it right away.
Know your "why" and be confident with knowing it. Stick with it and you will get the job/career you desire.
