Do you look for ways to be indispensable? If yes, that is wonderful. If not, you should be.
Pause today and list some of the ways you are indispensable to your current — or future — employer and to the world. Do you maximize relationships? What is your unique place within the business model, organization or industry? Do you bring new ideas or ways of doing things? Do you produce the best widgets? Are you the master of quality?
There are unlimited ways you are indispensable in the world. Use your imagination and ask others for feedback.
Becoming vital to a client, boss or organization creates a bond and a relationship. When the people you work for and with have a connection to you and to what make you vital, your value changes. As those in your closest circle experience who you are and what you do best, you strengthen your bonds and your circle of influence expands. These relationships open doors and provide you with valuable assets — people who tell your story and share your vital skills.
These people naturally share, with excitement, how critical you are and what make you so valuable. As this occurs, more and more people and organizations discuss you, what you do and how helpful your presence would be in other situations.
Simply, once your story is told, you stand out and your value shines!
Be vital, it is a smart career strategy. Be vital and maximize your value. Be vital and you will watch with amazement as doors open and the ease at which others want to share your story. Be vital and soar!
Post in the comments below and let me know what makes you vital and who will help share your story.
