It is time to update your personal development plan. Start by assessing your strengths and identifying your passions. Should you work on filling the gaps in your talent stack (knowledge, skills, accomplishments, wisdom and behavioural traits) to become a better fit or should yo take your talent stack to where it is a better fit as is.

Choosing to leave a job can be a gut-wrenching decision. You need to know that you are making the right choice. You will want to land a better job. Create a personal development plan, where you consider your passions and your talent stack (knowledge, skills, accomplishments, wisdom and behavioral traits). Fit the best-fit job that need your talents. If there are gaps start working on them now. Invest 10-15 hours per week to make your next move really worthwhile. Good luck!

Do You Work For A Good Boss?

A Great Boss

A great boss is aware of their own style and makes the effort to learn how their style actually comes across to their team. They learn to flex their leadership style to individual team members so that they communicate and behave in ways that motivate and inspire.

A Good Boss

A good boss makes his/her team members realize they have more ability than they think they have so that they consistently do better work than they thought they could.

A Regular Boss

Regular Boss views their role as a job. The best bosses aren't bosses - they are leaders — for a leader their position is a career. Remember the difference between a boss and a leader; a boss says "Go!" - a leader says "Let's go!"

A Bad Boss

A bad boss creates fear — a leader creates confidence. A bad boss fixes blame — a leader corrects mistakes. A bad boss knows all, — a leader asks questions. A bad boss makes work drudgery — a leader makes it interesting.

Indispensable at Work

Indispensable

Congratulations! You are an asset to your company and indispensable to the organization. A bright future awaits you if you continue with the good work. But the knowledge that you are indispensable should not make you arrogant or complacent.

Valuable

You have done fairly well and are considered valuable by your company. Though you are not really indispensable, you can make yourself valuable by making some changes in your attitude at work. Any improvement can easily get you into the safe zone.

Not a Valuable Resource

Your performance is mediocre and the company does not treat you as a valuable resource. You need to immediately improve your attitude and application to work. Unless you improve, you could be in the firing line soon.

Dispensable

You are a dispensable resource. If there are job cuts in your company, you may be asked to leave. It is difficult, but you could change your attitude, improving your interpersonal skills and be more proactive at work.
